The Bluetooth readers as cars drive by, is that what you’re talking about?

Idk if the Flock cameras also scan Bluetooth, but they are the eyes of the system that feeds the database with location data and destroys privacy. By blinding the eyes, its input becomes coarser, its data older, but the previous data is still there.

So if you close the eyes, that database can't create new data.

It isn't much but it is the first step.
