I believe this has been a feature on Mac OS since 2014, the only new update to this with the latest version from this week is the ability to change between off or a fixed or rotating address.

Not that i am aware of? I used to have some launch agent to take care of it.

You may be right, I was positive I was using it before this week without a script, but I can’t find anything to confirm that.

I have some family members that haven’t updated their devices yet, I’ll check them out later and see if they have the setting or not.

Btw iOS also got rotating MAC address randomization now. It used to be fixed. I think it’s still fixed by default

I believe Apple defaults to fixed for most networks and rotating for some known-public networks, but it’s unclear.
