RandomMAC.py

I spend a lot of time working in the starbucks near my office.  It is a great place to slip away from the office for an hour when I need to do some heads down work but dont want to be completely anti-social. 

Even though I always use a VPN one thing that always bothered my was that Starbucks was grabbing my MAC address every-time I logged in:

I am not a big fan of being tracked like this so this weekend I wrote randomMAC for OSX to quickly change my MAC address.

So now when I log in at Starbucks I am passing it a random MAC:

When getting an ice tea at Starbucks ask for “no water” for a much stronger (and in my opinion a much better) flavor. At Starbucks the tea is double-strength in pitcher and watered down for your final recipe.
