My next major home project is to wire the entire house with CAT6. The ISP is probably sniffing shit now but I am not going to make it easy for some cop or FBI Surveillance Van 12 to be parked down the street and spy on me.
or better yet go fiber... Here is an interesting option (though I haven't tested it yet myself): https://fibercommand.com/
I have heard of that before but never looked much into it.
How are you going to prevent them from using the WiFi chip in your phone, tablet, laptop, or desktop to achieve the same result? For that matter you're going to have WiFi-enabled TVs, media players, refrigerators, stoves, etc. All of those could be compromised.
I have a wifi tv but I never set up the wifi. It's is hard wired but I am learning new TVs lack the network port. The rest of that shit I ain't got. I will not buy a refrigerator with any TCP/IP capability.
Just because you haven't configured the chip doesn't mean it's not on and collecting data. Cars are now starting to come with cellular radios to transmit telemetry whether the owner wants them to or not. It wouldn't take much for Google or Apply to share your WiFi credentials with OEMs to allow their devices to communicate even without your permission.
Why the fuck would i have any of that shit?
Well, I know you've got one of them because you're on poal.
