What a bummer. The state of this is a joke. (Hunting for Open-Wrt compatible router and found this comment.) Uhg!! Also apparently a router of mine has siblings with published CVEs and the slopbots (I’m not a networking guy) figure there’s

A truly wonderful point. Some attacks on low-information voters in other comments which I understand but none of us have read that whole Medicare bill. That’s even if we don’t have three jobs and six kids. Considerations when we reach for “

False based on your sample size of one, (which is fine to share), or you’ve also read this somewhere? If it’s just your own datapoint, is it difficult to self assess?

Plus the DNS spying even after disabling their safety stuff (impossible to change DNS on Comcast Xfinity-provided gateway). Still trying to get as good speeds with my own equipment.

Too hot and expensive to run right now but a great hedge for peace of mind against $200 subscriptions shooting up to the $4000* they should cost. *$1000? $14,000? Who knows but everything in the middle there has been claimed.
