I think micrososft is the one that have almost endless info on people......
And if the government wants that, they have to purchase that data, or make deals........
Which makes microsoft make actual money from spying on people and shit........

Let's assume I have a current GPU from Nividia. Can the company (or police department) locate it?

If you are running windows: yes.

If you are running linux with encrypted luks partition: no.

Flat out wrong. Also, LUKS is not relevant. Since LUKS is for encrypting stored data, it won't work if a device ID is in memory.

What are you smoking?

No, you would not be able to track and find the location of one specific GPU. The best bet is that you'd know what computer that GPU belongs to and track that system as a whole, but that's assuming the parent system.

Scource on that? With less salt please?
All im saying is you are more likely to be able to do that on a windows computer
than on a linux one. If you didint know that microsoft have inbuilt stuff that collect user data used for survelliance.

This ^

As mentioned on the first page of this thread In the early stage of the OP's concern:

The GPU Itself, cannot be tracked remotely.

I believe this statement is not totally right, "cannot" is often exaggerated in IT :p
If OP is a terrorist linked to this GPU or something else very serious, they could use some unknown ways.
As we were saying, it's not totally impossible that Nvidia sends hardware info including mac adresses to their servers when you're installing the official drivers, for example. And if they get a subpoena, they could then track at least the IP linked to that.

I did mention a potential way. But for just the GPU alone, no. And also, if you have any shred of doubt about the NVIDIA driver not sending identifying data out, you could always wireshark it. Though it's admittedly very boring to watch.

Yeah very boring, and useless for most !
Plus you should also wireshark GeForce Experience & stuff after..

Since you insulted me pretty greviously, and the mods didnt do anything but celebrate you for it, allow me to throw my specimen into the kettle.

Brainless, retarded, pathetic, mindless, pretentious, stupid, idiotic piece of thrash

whore.

You are that type of whore who was raped by your father when you grew up and learned how to hak, just to escape your destiny of becoming the only thing you were meant to be, a whore who just suck cocks of people all day in and out. Your mindless stupidity reaches as far as thinking you can do shit because youve got your pretty titles. No. People like you are meant to suck people's cock and never give advice or talk about anything. Must have been pretty rough making it all the way here, huh? Brainless bimbo. And the fact that noone gives a fuck about you and you have to make small trollish comments on people just to prove your meaningless existence.

Cyberhug. Rest in peace.
