To ensure interoperability and prevent being removed by the proxy and router blacklist rule, we can atlast change our MAC address.
Some network administrators make blocking rights in proxy and router by including the MAC address. #pre-up ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:00:00:00:00:02Ĭhanging MAC addresses is basically required for privacy and to prevent tracking in the local network about your hardware details. If we want to store again the default MAC address, just add the # sign in front of command in the above step. Now we will include one line of script to change our MAC address forever
In this blog I will use a pico text editor, but you can select any of the text editors. We will merge the /etc/network/interfaces. In Debian all the network interfaces were located on Go to the next page to display how to change MAC addresses permanently. Next we can switch on the network interface againĪnd the last step we can check again our MAC whether it's changed or not. He next step is that we can configure the new MAC address To change your mac address temporarily, we need to switch off the network interface first by running the below command The first step is to Open your terminal, and enter The main requirement needed for this spoofing is a Linux terminal. Don't live in fear but proceed with caution.Changing MAC address or we also can tell that MAC address spoofing will be useful in some situations, but we will discuss it later in the conclusion of this blog. You want to limit attacks on you limit what goes out on the wire. My best advise is always proceed with the thought that anything you communicate over may be compromised. I think with enough reasonable security hygiene you can keep yourself out of harms way. I have too much understanding and even a greater imagination so its easy to get carried away with ones protection. I have spent a significant time in information security. I know in other countries these thoughts are quite scary and understandably so. For me those things are not of great concern. I do believe you can use things like this to keep casual monitors away not state actors. I would suspect US entities like the NSA own some of the TOR infrastructure and other countries have likely done the same.
For example I have used a TOR browser to proxy my way around various things however I would not trust that to protect my identity. Data on the wire with even the best encryption is only as good as the remote end. Privacy for data at rest is fairly easy to achieve. In my mind privacy refers data and anonymity refers to identity. Privacy and anonymity are two different animals.
