In 2017, NetworkManager devs changed the default "do not touch" rule to "preserve" for MAC addresses, mainly for making life easier for macchanger and similar external tools. Networking and user privacy are important more than ever, and there are some questions related to the last. NetworkManager is a top Linux application, available in each major Linux distributions and heavily used on laptops, desktops, and since Pinephone and Librem 5 - on Linux phones too.
