I think many ppl tell stories. Does not make sense to me that it is detectable thro' the browser.

I've read it might be possible to get it with javascript but haven't seen any actual proof yet.

I saw an article about this, but I don't have enough know-how in this area to evaluate it. In any event, maybe this will help:

Hi Greenbean, others, if you go to a Starbucks and open a browser window to use their free wifi, you will see your MAC address in the URL.

You can view someone's keystrokes with a key logger, I doubt amazon uses keyloggers they're usually sent in a virus or trojan.

Lol. I was actually one of the first to figure out that Amazon was using MAC tracking. I'll say no more about that, except to note that ironically, it was while running a legitimate non-stealth account. Basically just stumbled on the idea one day.
