Not quite. Part of the point was that "hardware coded IDs for devices concept should be erradicated from any device on the market in the future." I'd place MAC addresses in that bucket as well. A company like Apple that's been changing the status quo for years should be striving to do the same when it comes to their user's privacy and anonymity

MAC addresses too?

How do you propose to make networks work?

Why not use temporary short-lived MACs, in a way somehow like IPv6 temporary addresses?
