Has anyone heard about this company Euclid Analytics?
Apparently they track individual behavior over WIFI by logging your phone's MAC
address and storing info on where you shop and for how long.

So do we all need to generate random MAC addresses now? I don't think
you can do that on an iPhone though.

Yes, Euclid has been around for a bit, and attracting the ire of US

MACs are easy, and they're limited-scope, anyway.
Much better would be a daemon that mutates your IMEI on a daily,
or hourly
Or you can just turn your WiFi off when you're not using it. :)

Mutating IMEI's is interesting. How does that work on phone networks?
Can you phone connect with out a recognizable IMEI? Doesn't your IMSI
identify you anyway? You can change your SIM, but I don't think you
can spoof it, right?
