I'm reading about this topic, and I don't know if there is a real effective way to get the device id or the mac address of a device from an http request. The IP could be dangerous, because multiple device could share the same IP at some point.

Maybe a better approach could be trying to understand whether a user is cheating or not by checking his "questions path"

We can implement a cryptographic algorithm to generate a unique ID based on device info, then it's enough to add it to an HTTP header.
