How many consumer devices do you think have this exact bluetooth chip?
Hundreds of millions. They’re used in an almost uncountable number of IoT devices. It’s entirely possible that there’s a handful of 'em, or more, in your house. Absolutely anything “smart” that uses WiFi or Bluetooth could have one including sprinkler controllers, door locks, lightbulbs, appliances both large and small, garage door openers, and remote controlled power plugs.
Espressif has sold a huge number of ESP32 chips. This isn’t some uncommon no-name manufacturer or chip. It’s used at scale and has been for years.
That you aren’t personally aware of it only means that you have a blind spot.
