    I started rotating my BSSID weekly after I learned Apple and Google abused it to track the location of people and devices.

    Permanent hardware or software IDs, such as the Windows GUID or machine-id on Linux (systemd) are inevitably abused for surveillance sooner or later.

      You have all the good intentions, but since no one else does this around your location, I don't think you're achieving anything.

    Interesting, wondering why Apple doesn't restrict the queries to its server using a certificate that would be pinned on the devices, etc, so at least you would need a legit iPhone/Mac to be able to do a query?

    Cool. This'll go nicely with my hackslab and tinfoil hat upgrade.
