HWID (Hardware ID) bans have emerged as a significant challenge for gamers. An HWID ban restricts access to games based on the unique hardware identifier of a player’s computer, often as a penalty for violations.

A device ban is a restriction or prohibition imposed on the use of a specific device, typically a electronic device, in a particular setting or context. This can include, but is not limited to, cell phones, laptops, tablets, and other electronic communication devices.

Notice the first doesn't includes most devices while the second does include most devices.

Retail software looks for the specific chip ID. That is very difficult to get on most cellphones because of privacy issues. The operating system prohibits gathering such information.

Because the OS is Linux based.
