	On-campus networks (i.e. residence halls/dorms or shared units in [[college]]) and some other private networks, track [[bandwidth]] usage not by [[IP address]], but by MAC address. On campuses, these limits are [[typically]] between 1gb and 6gb a day (for off-campus traffic, [[Upload\|U]]/D combined). By spoofing your MAC address, it resets your bandwidth total and you gain instant [[respect]] within the [[hacker\|haxoring]] community, the equivalent of taking [[CS III]] (and passing with a [[Geek\|C++]] or better).

	[[Some argue\|Contrary]] to [[popular belief]] among [[macfags]], a "MAC address" has nothing to do with the shiny white plastic bricks that you see everywhere nowadays. It stands for "'''M'''edia '''A'''ccess '''C'''ontrol address" and is a unique identifier associated with a [[network]] adapter. More importantly, it can be spoofed for [[theft\|convenience]], [[porn\|fun]] and [[profit]].

	The IEEE 802 MAC address was originally created by a Scotchman, named Conchar McAddress. He implemented it in the original Xerox Ethernet addressing scheme. Because of him, this 48-bit address space contains potentially 2^48 or 281,474,976,710,656 possible MAC addresses.
