All this is implying is that they are capturing this data anyways and offering you a peek at it for money with the guise that its for your safety.
There is likely no way for you to shut it off tracking you everywhere in your own home unless you pay them to access the settings for this feature.
They likely can track you behaviors with this and know when you take a shit, when you jerk-off/fuck your spouse, when you watch media, etc using machine-learning on the wifi specrum of your locations, signal shape, and duration.
Fuck this crazy invasive shit to piss.
Ask for just a plain modem and buy your own WiFi router. If that isn't an option, disable the routing functions and turn off the WiFi and buy your own router.
Does owning my own hardware prevent the service provider from getting this data?
They would have to have access to the wifi piece specifically, so asside from them hacking the router, which is unlikely..
It makes it a lot less likely.
