Description
I am a developer at Disney+ Hotstar, a customer of the Google Widevine ecosystem, which we rely on to protect our digital content.
In our app, we use the PROPERTY_DEVICE_UNIQUE_ID field to uniquely identify an Android device. According to the Android source code comments, "the device unique identifier is established during device provisioning and provides a means of uniquely identifying each device."
However, in our testing, we have observed that the value of PROPERTY_DEVICE_UNIQUE_ID is not always unique. We have encountered multiple different devices sharing the same PROPERTY_DEVICE_UNIQUE_ID. This behavior contradicts the expectation set by the source code comments.
Could you please clarify whether this is the intended behavior? Additionally, are we correctly using this property as a unique device identifier, or is there an alternative recommended approach?
Looking forward to your guidance.
