When I read a rant like that, it makes me happy that I'm still using an iPhone. Settings tend to stay in the same place, I don't have to do a Google search to find out how to disable private/random MAC address settings*, most of the Apple applications are now easily removable, etc.

And yes, random MAC addresses are important to me since our corporate WiFi uses the MAC address to associate a device with a user during the registration process. Addresses with the multicast or universal/local bit set are not accepted as valid MAC addresses for registration. I.e. if the first octet of the MAC address is not xxxxxx00, it's bit bucketed. Every <expletives deleted> Android device seems to place that setting in a different spot.
