Your MAC is used for the communication between your computer and your router. Spoofing your MAC is usefull in networks which are not under your control (hotspots, school, work, …). Then, from that network point of view, your computer won't identify itself with your mac address that is closely tied to your computer hardware. Spoofing your mac address has no impact on your IP address, so it won't anonymise your surfing. forwarding because I forgot to send to the list.
