Correct. I was trying to keep it simple. As it's still possible to be used for tracking, I still included.
However, that's why I clarified if any hacker were to go threw these efforts, or any others I mentioned, you'd have to be pretty high on a blacklist, as the effort would be beyond any profitable gain.

However, as others have mentioned, you gain very little from doing so. Any legitimate hacker wouldn't bother, even if you were a celebrity, or politician. You can get so much more from a computer, or mobile device, that a smartwatch is just pointless.

for a hacker to take the time to do this, you'd need to really be on someone's blacklist. It's just pointless otherwise.

TLDR; Yes, but it's not worth it to any hacker.
