Can someone explain the other iot devices using the same broker? I tried cross referencing the feature list, information about the user base, kickstarter origin and flutter app with some search results and I’m pretty sure that I found the company and product in question. But they don’t (publicly) produce iot devices? Sooo I’m wondering if different companies are streaming their data into a shared sink and why they would do that?

They were scanning BLE so any device using that protocol in range would be picked up. Similar to seeing your neighbor's Wi-Fi router from your couch.

That has nothing to do with the MQTT broker.
