So how do you determine if your headphones have the vulnerable chip in them?
You will need to do some research on your headphones, I guess.

Imagine how much data could be collected from, say, a busy gym full of people with wireless headphones, or a hotel lobby
... and this is why I don't use bluetooth on anything.
I never have it enabled unless I am in the car driving and need driving directions or listening to music/podcasts. I prefer wired headphones, but manufacturers are making that difficult.
Because they can't sell you more Bluetooth crap if they give you a choice.
Stop buying no-Jack phones.
