Longstanding, unpatched Bluetooth vulnerability lets burglars shut down Google security cameras

What happens if you give the camera a real SSID and password combo to connect to? e.g. a Portable Hotspot? Does it then “forget” the original one or does it keep a list of remembered wifi names? If it simply updates to the new details and never reconnects again to the old details it would be trivial to change the wifi setup then disconnect the hotspot leaving the cameras totally disconnected… but yeah… hoodies.
