if he’s using ethernet all they need to do is monitor the ethernet port’s activity so even if he did spoof his mac address if the IT department set it so that ethernet ports could not go over a certain limit then it won’t really matter if he he’s spoofs it or not. now if he’s on wi-fi it may make a difference, but even then i bet the speeds on the wifi are severely reduced to stop people who feel like transferring large files. that’s how it is at my school anyways. wi-fi speeds are slower even with an excellent signal than wired connections.
