While this is a neat idea, isn’t it insecure against just sniffing bt mac addresses and masquerading as the correct one?

Yes and they say as much in the post:

>Just remember that the script showed in this article was created for educational purposes (just for fun) and it shouldn’t be used in places where you are exposed to anybody that could reach your keyboard. This is mainly because of the fact that your Bluetooth MAC becomes effectively password to your system, and despite of techniques that hides Bluetooth MAC it should be treated as public information. It works ok when using it at home, during pandemic, when the only hackers nearby are 2 and 6 years old and mostly using brute-force keyboard attacks, not Bluetooth MAC spoofing.
