Specific Machine IP or Mac Address linked to Computer ??

[fab5freddy]

I would like to know if my MacBook Pro connected to WiFi has
a specific I.D. or IP address linked to my Computer
that Google can read when i open an account ( adwords account ) ?

Is there any way Google can tell that the same Computer has
opened several accounts with the same machine ?

thanks!

every computer has a unique mac addy

as previous poster, every computer, and in fact many electronic equipment has its own MAC address. IP address may have something to do with it, but if google do record the IP address it will be your external not internal IP address. unless your ISP has said you have a static IP address, all you need to do is reboot the router and you may get a different address. check by logging into the router.

But can Google see that it was my MAC address that opened
specific Accounts in Adwords ??

Yes, Google can see your IP address when connecting to any of their services (unless you're using a proxy). Google won't care about your MAC address though and can't see it.

ok, I can always change the IP address through a VPN or a Proxy,

but you Cannot change the machine specific MAC address.

So my question is :
Can Google see which machine your are logging in from ?


thanks !

You CAN change your machines MAC with the ifconfig command. It isn't recommended but it can be easily done.

I really don't understand what you're so worried about Google looking at you. Tens of millions of people access their stuff every day, why do you think you'll stand out? Are you doing something naughty with your adwords account?
