Using macchanger for MAC‑spoofing on a sys‑net VM to prevent ISPs from collecting metadata that could be sold or handed over to governments

When you connect to the internet through your ISP’s modem, sys-net is the first to connect! The real MAC address of your network card is not anonymized; it remains as the original, and the ISP collects that MAC address!

You’ve seen this, right? Anonymizing your MAC address

And you researched my comment before you replied, right? For example, you’ve seen this: anonymize MAC: update for 4.1 · 12fe6519e3 - Git-Mirrors/Qubes-Community-Content - Forgejo: Beyond coding. We forge.

Are you saying that that isn’t working on your system? It’s working on mine (both the default, and also the manual modification to sys-net, for example for wired eithernet).
