AppleJuice BLE Hack: Spamming Apple Devices with a Raspberry Pi Pico W!

Hackers caused a stir at Defcon with AppleJuice, an experimental project that uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to send proximity pairing messages to Apple devices. While this doesn't cause the device to pair, it is annoying, and could lead to other attacks.

Now with a low-cost microcontroller like a Raspberry Pi Pico W, you can try it yourself! Check out the Github repo here: https://github.com/ECTO-1A/AppleJuice
