WiFi turns on by itself on my iPhone

hi, I'd like to make a complaint whenever I change locations even though I've disabled my Wi-Fi it seems it turns back on even if I power off my phone I think this leaves vulnerable to VPN hacks and being hacked via Wi-Fi. Same thing happens with my Bluetooth. this is a total violation of privacy.

  1. An iPhone canot be hacked remotely. Not sure what you mean by VPN hacks. A VPN (Virtual Private Network) is sometihng that protects your internet traffic, not something used for hacking.
  2. If you turn off Wi-Fi through Control Center it is set by design to turn back on, once you leave the location or its 5AM the next day. If you want to keep Wi-Fi turned off, turn it off through Settings ➜ Wi-Fi instead. click here ➜ Use Bluetooth and Wi-Fi in Control Center - Apple Support
  3. Bluetooth acts in a similar manner. No privacy violation here, you agree to these functions by using the iPhone. If you don't accept these functions, then stop using the iPhone.
