Take it to the PM's lads you guys derailed this guys topic.
For what it's worth I have used Kano's firmware all be it long time ago on the S3's and it actually was much better than what shipped at the time so I can confirm what he says he know's his shit.
Now OP...
Their probably is ways to track miners just people don't like to talk about it because it's probably going on.
Best bet is to stay away from modified firmware and stick to OEM stuff.
At the end of the day it's a running a OS and could quite easy have something installed on it.
I doubt the security of older miners is that robust anyone with some Kali skills and access to a machine could easy add some form of tracking to the machine.
A while back a lot of miners got infected some people claim they got infected even with stock firmware and really secure passwords I never did find out more about it but I am sure if you google it you will find the info about them.
I would assume there is enough data sent to fingerprint each miner in the same way browsers are fingerprinted. I would only be confident there's not if I was proxying my own data.
Still run almost 30 rigs in ethos. It still works great for what it works with. For newest series cards ... it doesnt have support. What was great (and bad for ethos) was the pay once use forever on that rig model. Certainly got my moneys woth over last 5+ years of running it. Super solid. But for new rigs i run mmpOS..
Hi what about the miners updates which seems to add performance when updated, how do u handle that?
Those programs either do nothing for mining or are likely snake oil. Your friend is stroking his ego
I'm thinking the friend is trying to share some home built trojan

I haven't been able to find much info on StrongU - are they legit? Website is just over a year old, and I don't find reviews for current or older machines.
EDIT: It seems that Hyperbit is also selling Fusion Silicon hardware. They used to sell BW.com hardware, like the BW-L21 Litecoin miner. www.hyperbitshop.io
Shit - I've been looking at the scam site. And now out of stock and not showing a price. What was the listed price?
/edit - and wrong thread - trying to find details for the x11 miner, model x7 if anyone cares to share...
