Unique IDs are a privacy concern. Best you can tell by randomized MAC addresses is who the manufacturer of the device is and the type of device if you’re lucky (like when the manufacturer’s departments are internally split into separate companies), but that’s not guaranteed.
I thought government regulation would prevent that? I thought the whole point of a Mac address was a unique id for hardware
