Why are all remote MAC addresses HonHaiPr_85:c9:be (94:39:e5:85:c9:be)

When I check packets from many addresses and I look at the remote host's Mac address I get this for totally unrelated websites: Source: HonHaiPr_85:c9:be (94:39:e5:85:c9:be) Address: HonHaiPr_85:c9:be (94:39:e5:85:c9:be) .... ..0. .... .... .... .... = LG bit: Globally unique address (factory default) .... ...0 .... .... .... .... = IG bit: Individual address (unicast)

This seems very unlikely. What's going on?
