The pink bag shown is actually a static dissipative bag, not a static shielding bag, so would not be expected to work. Though the article mentions trying other bags so no doubt some of those where static shielding (metallic appearance) bags.

I've had a lot of fun in the past trying to shield Bluetooth devices for testing... metal filing cabinet? Practically no attenuation. Biscuit tin? Minimal attenuation like in the article.

Modern radio receivers are ridiculously sensitive.

I noticed this as well.

This is not a mylar bag. It's frustrating how often these two are confused, especially when said confusion can result in component damage.
