The only thing in the article that has to do with wireless headphones is watching for devices in discoverable mode and using that to physically track movements.
Most (all that I know of, but I’m a be generous here!) Bluetooth headphones have to be made discoverable temporarily and turn it off after they’re paired, so this is more like you could be tracked locally by an array of bt receivers if you’re walking around with the button on your headphones held down.
The other thing in the article that applies to all people with phones or computers or whatever is the relatively old news that cops buy data from data brokers instead of doing investigations.
