Nope, not enough.
I'm going to start carrying around a wifi/Bluetooth jammer. Saw one for about $200 that can fit in you pocket.
If that outputs any sort out MAC address (hope to God not) I wonder if you'd be able to be scanned by Flock or Axis cameras with their BT/WiFi proximity scanning...

I’m fairly certain those can lead to massive legal trouble because they can interfere with actual first responders like fire/medical. Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but I personally wouldn’t take that chance.
At least they can all hear me when I tell them to kiss my ass.
Lol, it disregards the privacy of the wearer too.
