I run a per-app DNS firewall on my phone... I can tell you that my Jabra earphones attempt to send analytics remotely, that there's a call out to Baidu (China), and they attempt to send such data at fairly regular intervals. I also see that my Bose QC35s do this.
So headphones sending listening analytics, location data, and other things to third parties is already provably happening.
The only question is what they're going to do with it... and the Bose 700 is the first to basically say that this data will be used to do "something", without defining what.
