I took a look into https://review.coreboot.org/cgit/board-status.git?
The commit here https://review.coreboot.org/cgit/board-status.git/commit/?id=72945dee4c60b90... tells me for example that the MAC address from Paul Menzel is bc:5f:f4:c8:d3:98 . The mac address from the WLAN Router Patrick Georgi is using is based on this commit https://review.coreboot.org/cgit/board-status.git/commit/?id=addd59d8fb55dc6... the mac 70:3a:cb:bd:fd:e3 . This is probably some Google device his device is connecting to because the mac range is registered to Google Inc. Now i can lookup in public wifi databases and in some cases i then know where the users lives. The mac address from Chris Thompson is 6c:f0:49:47:22:4d based on https://review.coreboot.org/cgit/board-status.git/commit/?id=da41a5a88bebc9f...
And the mac address from Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli who is using parabola as os was using a Hitachi HDP725050GLA360 with firmware GM4OA52A and a second WDC WD5000AAKB-00YSA0 with firmware 12.01C02 and have switched now to a ST9160314AS with 0002SDM1 firmware. His mac address of one of his computers is bc:5f:f4:9c:b7:32 . In this computer he is using a KINGSTON SV300S37A240G with firmware 603ABBF0 .
I was thinking of contributing to the Board Status but i dont want to release any private data and wont contribute now. What is the usage of the world to know what mac address the people are using?
Please fix this to: 1) Remove kernel log and replace it with "uname -r" to just know the kernel version. 2) Please make the contribution without the force of having to register to git. Make a public account that have just access to the board-status.git and set this public account into the code itself. Then there can be for example a simple live linux iso that people can boot with LAN cable connected. No requirement of installation software, of setting things up or anything like that.
