Hello, I want to inform that today one of my children began to play, and I inform that we share the same computer, since it is the only one we have.

Unfortunately it's against the rules
8.4 Multiple accounts
There may be only one account per player, and one player per computer. Multiple accounts are not allowed! If we notice at any time that a person has more than one account, or more than one account is being used on the same computer (except in the case described in 8.3) then we reserve our right to restrict one or both accounts from further racing without prior warning and apply further punishments including but not limited to a ban from racing, forced Rookie reset, in-game financial penalty, or in extreme cases account closure.

If you have a tablet, he can use that for GPRO, even a smartphone.

Exactly. And once your child logs in with that device, make sure your child doesn't log in with your computer and you don't log in with that device.

I wouldn't worry too much. Rule 8.4 as quoted above is hardly enforcable.
What if you happen to have two identical Macbook models at home, both running the same browser?

You should know this, there are no identical macbooks.
Remember MAC addresses, and severla serial numbers are unique to every computer. (Even software has different serial numbers)

Yes, all identifiers that a webserver never sees.
The server sees a user agent and ip, that's it. Hence my question: what if two users in the same home both use a Macbook running an identical browser build?

For sake of not derailing this thread in an unwanted direction: sure, that must be the case

It's not necesary, they can track use only leaving a cookie, where they save wich account log on this browser, the combination of data from origin and cookies/browser local storage is the most common way.

There's an easy solution: Since (s)he is old enough to do GPRO, (s)he's most likely old enough for own computer.
And GPRO does not require super-hyper state of the art computer, a modest second hand can do just fine.

Maybe you want to gift (s)he a new computer!!!
Is easy to be generous with anothers money!!!

Don't really understand where you got the idea of "new one", as I said a "modest second hand one" could do for a child's first computer, specially for GPRO it doesn't necessarily have to be state of the art shiny new one.

Them buying something (hopefully relatively cheap) to their own children would be "generosity"? What does that say about you ?
Furthermore.. Normally I might sell one for 50€ or so, which means it wouldn't be the most expensive thing a parent faces on the course of a child's life.
But for a child in need I might even donate one, They'd just need to come get it. (sadly can't ship one across the world)

This reminds me when a friends daughter asked him to buy her another playstation, since the one in the living room was his (Her words) lol
I know here in US it's normal that everyone has a personal computer, but some of my friends in. Argentina have one computer, only, since there is not enough demand for productivity that requires multiple computers connected together, but I also understand the rule of GPRO. that prevents 55 accounts for every player if this was not enforced..

@Mikko: 50 euros may be peanuts for you and me sir, but for many it may be a spend that equals them not eating for a week.
I'd be a bit more cautious with those kinds of statements, all i want to say.

I do get that and understand the point
All I meant was that if one "makes a person", in the relation of the ~18 years of "maintenance liability" ~50€ might not be the most expensive thing. (equivalent of 1€ for 50 weeks).
Granted there are also lots of other costs during those years, so I do understand that adding ~50 or so might be challenging.
But the main point was that for GPRO it doesn't have to be a 1000€ or even 500€ machine, a much much cheaper one would do.
That being said:

Wouldn't the system embed a 'ticket/bit/cookie' or something like that. When signing on, the system reads a small 'bit' and recognizes the computer.
If it already has the 'bit' it won't log on to a different account. OR It might log on but then you get caught because surely the system would produce a report.
Those with more than one computer could still work around the system. I have enough with one account... I couldn't do 2 or 3. lol
