Interestingly in OP's tweet (same username as his HN username): [1], he credits [2], who made a Linux CLI for the same functionality, and named it "based-connect". And the CLI-coder got a summer internship at Bose, so it doesn't seem Bose was that mad.

But still, using the name Boze is cease and desist magnet.

Makes me wonder how much work OP did, did he just wrap the CLI around an Electron UI?

"Just" develop a nice UI?

That’s a pretty low bar especially compared to reverse engineering a hardware communication protocol
