Hi,

please stop cross-posting, and keep the discussion to tails-dev@.

CANNON:
> changing only first half of the MAC


Nitpicking: I guess you mean the *second* half.

> is same as not changing your MAC.


Please elaborate what you mean here, since obviously you mean more
than 1 == 2 :).

> Sit in a coffee shop with packet sniffer, most laptops have unique manufacture codes.


Can you please explain the exact threat model in which that's
a problem?

Ideally, please do it using the nomenclature we've defined in our
design documentation:
