My friends in school would send ringtones, wallpapers, and other small files through Bluetooth. It normally worked pretty well no matter the device.

Those were the good days of early bluetooth tech.

Everything got quickly walled off soon after, and for two decades we were left wondering why it wasn’t possible to share a picture from your phone to your computer, both BT-enabled, and instead must use proprietary protocols like AirDrop or convoluted steps in Windows. I hope these EU regulations will finally bring things back to how they should have always been.
