Trusted with your viewing history? With a trivially regeneratable netflix password?
I like keeping privacy private, but I'm having a hard time imagining what sorts of private data you are concerned with that would be going over a set top box.
Or were you more worried about the STB being an attack vector into your home and other machines?
- JohnFen 7y agoTrusted as in not reporting data about my use of the boxes or what I'm watching to anybody other than the sources of the video.
- munk-a 7y agoAlmost certainly not, they're very likely collecting viewership data unless not doing that is explicitly called out. But there is some good news! Since you're watching a lot of things that are being served over the interwebs your data has likely already been entirely harvested by the provider companies anyways!
