There was just a thread on the community about how Linux’s machine-id can similarly be used to identify you. Far from a Linux power user, so I don’t know the veracity of that claim or how far it goes, and at least it isn’t tied directly to a company that you know is tracking you. Just point out that Linux generally has a similar machine-id it presents to browsers with a lot of information that could be used to identify you.
