This is sample code to get Google Advertising ID

Thread adIdThread = new Thread(new Runnable() {
  @Override
  public void run() {
    AdvertisingIdClient.Info adInfo = null;
    try {
      adInfo = AdvertisingIdClient.getAdvertisingIdInfo(context);
      final String id = adInfo.getId();
      final boolean isLAT = adInfo.isLimitAdTrackingEnabled();

      if (!isLAT) {
        // Do something
      }
    } catch (Exception e) {
 }
}
});
adIdThread.start();

In android, event the user disabled advertising feature, the developer can get Advertising ID.
The use depends on developers

The code is asynchronous.
