> Am I missing something?
The source code links https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/machine-id.html https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/machine-id.... mentions hashing using an "application-specific key", which would at least make it not correlatable between different apps (so $WEBSITE can't correlate machine IDs with $WELL_BEHAVED_APP 's machine IDs.)
But either I'm missing something, or Chromium is - it looks like it's straight up hashing the file and not actually using any application-specific keys!
