Is it possible to change the MAC address?
I have the following situation: I work remotely and often connect to different Wi-Fi networks via my laptop. I would like to increase my anonymity and security when using public networks. I've heard that changing the MAC address can help. Who can tell me how to do it?

Isn't changing the IP enough? I was under the impression that using a proxy was enough for my security and anonymity on the network. Isn't it?

Not always. But changing the MAC address can really add an extra layer of privacy, especially when you're using public networks. This makes it harder to track your device by its unique identifier. But it's not that simple. So before you get started, I recommend checking out this article right here on how to change a mac address.
