@EarthLaunch that is normal. System Preferences shows the Hardware Address. But ifconfig shows the current address which your device is identified as.

I already know of all those links, except the one on the Apple Dev forums.

One of the replies there does not look great for the future of spoofing on macOS, which ironically goes against Apple's very public image of pro Privacy....

Alright everyone.
 
My ticket has been closed and I pinged a bunch of friends I have that work at Apple HQ.
 
Final result. This is not a bug. Apple is removing this feature for security reasons.
This makes no sense since doing this does not put the individual doing it at a security risk.
But I don't. Im so done with the platform. You can't just remove ifconfig functionality.
Thats not how any of this works.

it looks as though support will be added for this in a future Safari release. Safari Technology Preview 85 returns all the tab titles on relaunch.

v6.0.16.1 should fix this problem:

@robert_olding try disabling the timer in Cookie

That is the correct behaviour. The Address in System Preferences shows you the Hardware Mac Address. This is the default address and can not be changed without physically replacing the wireless card in your Mac. Your MAC address will always reset to this on a computer restart.

WifiSpoof changes the software MAC address. This is what your computer broadcasts to other devices.

Well it’s quite a bit more work than just updating a few strings...

I’ll mYbe look into it over the weekend

Has you trial expired?
try re-entering the license you are running the trial version

@rickrobles I am sure that is the issue, Photoshop doesn't adhere to macOS best practices...

@planet this is fixed in v6.7.3

There are some small differences.
The version from my store will give you exactly 2 more options during setup for enhanced removal of Safari History and Cache.

With a little extra effort, you can make the App Store version function just like the trial version.

1. First of all, you will need to download and manually install:
   https://sweetpproductions.com/products/cookieapp/scripts/Safari_Script.dmg
   you can find the link with more info about how to install the script here:
   https://sweetpproductions.com/products/cookieapp/scripts/en.htm
   Basically you need this script if you want to fully remove Safari search history.

2. Run the following command in Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app to enable a deeper clearing of Safari's cache:
   defaults write com.sweetpproductions.CookieApp removePrivateVarFolder -bool true
   To run the command, you only need to open Terminal.app, copy and paste the above command, then press ENTER.
