-- This platform is incompatible with Windows
-- This platform requires access to the Bluetooth stack, see [Rootless Setup section](#rootless-setup) for further information
-
-### Rootless Setup on Core installs
-
-Normally accessing the Bluetooth stack is reserved for root, but running programs that are networked as root is a bad security wise. To allow non-root access to the Bluetooth stack we can give Python 3 and hcitool the missing capabilities to access the Bluetooth stack. Quite like setting the setuid bit (see [Stack Exchange](https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/96106/bluetooth-le-scan-as-non-root) for more information).
