Re: Dear Danny_2
There are a few obvious problems with anonymity, such as it's easily astroturfed. That's why when I speak out in favour of anonymity I put my name to it. To portray me as anti-privacy is silly. My surname isn't really 2, and I trust El Reg more than I trust the readers of El Reg. No offence.
There are obvious tech reasons why a unique identifier on any network was useful; there are obvious socio-political reasons today why it is dangerous. This article isn't about whether MAC addresses should be spoofed or not, it is about a flaw in one corporations spoofing. DIY.
