Reggaeton Be Gone was developed by machin to learn By Argentine programmer and musician Ronnie Bandini to block and “attack” loudspeakers BBluetooth From the neighbors who woke him up in the morning to the sound of reggaeton music.
Inspired by the TV-B-Gone β a remote control created in 2004 for the purpose of turning TVs on and off β the Bandini device was created with… to learn automatic. like? FirstlyThe programmer trains the device by inputting thousands of reggaeton songs, all adjusted to the same frequency, and uses a classification algorithm. This algorithm will organize the input data and act on it as required. Bandini then creates the code using the Python programming language, which makes… Programming Be able to monitor audio through an external microphone and act on what is captured.
In this way, the device collects sound samples sent by the speakers around it, recognizes them according to the algorithm trained by the programmer, and intercepts them. According to the newspaper El PaisWith the Latin music genre selected, the device will attack this source by sending multiple connection requests as a means of disconnecting it or degrading the sound quality.
In practice, the Reggaeton Be Gone couldn't completely separate the speakers Bluetoothbut it managed to generate enough interference for the neighbor to stop it – βIt is certainly not a success, but it is not a defeat,β comments Bandini in his book Blog.

Ronnie Bandini's device became widespread after A Publishing Its creation on the social network X (formerly Twitter) reached five million views. Many users praised the Argentine programmer for his creativity, but its publication also opened a debate about the ethics inherent in its use and the legality of the device itself.
