Can someone explain the other iot devices using the same broker? I tried cross referencing the feature list, information about the user base, kickstarter origin and flutter app with some search results and I’m pretty sure that I found the company and product in question. But they don’t (publicly) produce iot devices? Sooo I’m wondering if different companies are streaming their data into a shared sink and why they would do that?
They were scanning BLE so any device using that protocol in range would be picked up. Similar to seeing your neighbor's Wi-Fi router from your couch.
That has nothing to do with the MQTT broker.
> The first thing Claude did was scan for BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) devices nearby. It found mine among 35 devices in range, connected, and mapped the interface -- two data channels. One for sending commands, one for streaming data.
Read the article before you unholster your weapon next time.
yes but https://aimilios.bearblog.dev/reverse-engineering-sleep-mask... reads like they connected to MQTT and received data from IOT devices on there, not using BLE
I’ve read the article. Sounds like you don’t understand the difference between MQTT and Bluetooth.
