Fitness watches are bluetooth, not wifi.  What you are referring to
was the news about the enemy getting HUMINT from Fitness Watch data.
The don;t get it from the watch they get from the company that keeps
copies of all the fitness data uploaded from the watch thru their
smartphones.  And none of that data ever touches MILNET.  And I am
fairly certain they are not keeping that information on VMS boxes.
