Told to turn it off and refused to do so. Why are you defending the selfish little prick?

Refused, or unable? It might have been in the luggage compartment, or they just might not have known how.
Could also have been a prank played on somebody who wasn't even aware
This presupposes knowing that a fitbit uses bluetooth. As I understand it, there are also models (e.g. Fitbit Charge) which cannot be turned off anyway.
Plus there is an overall assumption here that the owner of a Fitbit knows that the device nickname is visible to anyone, and not just themselves.
These things are certainly not at all obvious in an app-centric bluetooth device context.
