>Now this is interesting. If without that 13 bits of entropy, what will Google lost? Is it because of this 13 bits then Google suddenly able to track what they were not?
At the very least, having those 13 bits of entropy along with a /24 subnet allows you to have device-level granularity, whereas a /24 subnet may be shared by hundreds of households.
They have more than 13 bits of entropy

Look how the function is called, high-entropy source :)
But if you disable telemetry, they'll only have 13?
