Description

Whne running the command `sudo spoof-mac.py randomize Wi-Fi` I get the warning: `WARNING: The airport command line tool is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
For diagnosing Wi-Fi related issues, use the Wireless Diagnostics app or wdutil command line tool.`

Running newest OS at the time of writing this : Sequoia 15.5 (24F74)

Research direction

Reproduce `sudo spoof-mac.py randomize Wi-Fi` on macOS Sequoia 15.5 and locate where the command invokes the deprecated `airport` tool. Determine the supported replacement and update the command so MAC randomization works without the warning; verify the command on the reported OS.
