Re: A technical question about Google's WiFi tracking plans

If you've never used Google's WiFi, then I don't think they can; all 
they would get is your MAC address, which is useless to them.

If you have used Google's WiFi before, they might have a record of your 
MAC address, so they will be able to recognize you.
