MAC spoofing cannot be disabled for devices using modules from the staging directory
Originally created by @sajolida on #12362 (Redmine)
As of 617151fc, if I:
- Start Tails with a USB WiFi dongle that doesn’t support MAC spoofing
- Disable MAC spoofing in Tails Greeter
Then:
- MAC spoofing is still enabled and I can’t use that card.
But, if I plug the USB WiFi dongle once the session is started. MAC spoofing is not applied to the new interface and I can use that card.
