Anyone know if the Amazon Dash buttons can track you walking around your house?

If each button is short range bluetooth that can connect to your phone and you have one in each room of your house. Then I would assume you could use that information to track your location as the walk through your house if you had your phone on you (or a smart watch). unless the buttons are really low power and are only going to turn on when pressed? Does anyone know if there is a tear down of these buttons online anywhere? Or if anyone has decoded the data it is sending to see what information the buttons are sending?

Since you can be tracked by your phones internal gps, routers/wireless access points, lights, and various other means already, it almost seems irrelevant but it could.

Wait.... the dash button wasn't an april fool's joke?

Just... why...
