I see networking parameter randomisation in other things, too (like mobile phones), and really can't see it doing anything but cause you problems. Every time your connection drops (and it will), you may have to reauthenticate to reconnect (something usually does reauthenticate, and you may have to manually do something, too). No anonymising happening then. Even if your connection seems different, something else (like your browser) re-identifies you. If you *really* need to be anonymous, like you're a whistleblower, or your government murders their citizens, don't use your phone. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.88.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Mar 7 15:41:52 UTC 2023 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
