Win10 uses random wireless network card MAC address method

Win10 uses the method of random wireless network card MAC address. When our mobile phone/tablet and other devices are connected to the wireless network, the device will send a signal to search the wireless network in the area to help obtain the connection. This signal contains the unique physical hardware (MAC) address of the device. Some locations (for example, shopping centers, stores, or other public areas) use this unique address to track your whereabouts in that area. If you don't want to be tracked, you can use a random hardware address (MAC).
