Captain, I'm Picking Up A Distress Signal

Once or twice I've made mocking posts about all the Lt. Uhurus running around with those ridiculous blinking Bluetooth earpieces, but this new "invisible" in-ear receiver seems a slight improvement. According to the linked Gizmodo article, this radio frequency receiver is "capable of receiving transmissions from mobile phones, walkie-talkies and specialized transmitters, with a range of 250 meters." I suppose the wire serves both as an antenna and a handle for getting the dang thing out of your ear. Of course, now you will really look like a crazy person talking to himself. Coming soon to Secret Service and Starfleet personnel near you.
