Nice from a business perspective for sure. I shudder as a privacy conscious consumer.

  Indeed. Just seen in my Twitter feed via @LaurenGoode [1] > Every Eero that’s connected ends up spitting out data to help us understand how our iPhone’s performing, how our Sonos speaker’s performing, how is Alexa performing, and we use that aggregated data to keep improving our software.

    Wow -- I wonder what data they're going to collect once they're Amazon. Need a canary for https://eero.com/legal/privacy https://eero.com/legal/privacy . Look for the string "URI" or "URL" to see when they start collecting browsing data.

      Routers can't see URLs now that everything is HTTPS but they could still collect valuable site-level metadata.

        Except in networks like mine -- I MITM all HTTPS traffic in my network so that I can detect and handle threats that use HTTPS to hide themselves from my defenses.

          How often do you run into certificate pinning issues?
          • JohnFen 8y ago
            I haven't, to the best of my knowledge.

        > Routers can't see URLs now that everything is HTTPS that is not true... at least not currently.
