Ehhhh it’s flexible enough that I’d bet it can change its “identity” and make it seem like 1000 different devices

There seems to (at least theoretically) whitelist pairing-requests by mac-adress. Randomly hitting those few approved adresses consistently seems fairly unlikely: https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/50121103 (how to do it on Samsung, wish I had this option as well)

Yes, but these are requests for new devices to pair

And most people aren’t going to bother with that white list

And even if they did, the attack can be tailored to the white list, because you don’t need to have a real Mac address, it can be spoofed
