Not really unless they are stealing PII.
IP addresses are considered PII, and IMEIs are in every way worse than IP addresses.
The router’s MAC is not PII for example. This is why I write that GDPR only applies in case they collect actual PII.
Several jurisdictions consider MAC addresses to be personal information as well.
