Spite mostly. I have small QoL improvements, but mostly because Google says I can't do what I want with my device.
Specific reasons:
No longer working:
Don't most phones these days generate a spoofed MAC address by default?
Not spoofed, but a random MAC.
So I guess, see what devices are on the wifi and then taking over the connection while blocking the actual device? Or like spoofing a manufacturer like Cisco/HPE/Juniper etc. so it get's free allocation?
Do you have any link to PixelExpert?
Thank you!
