Make no mistake, this is 100% going to be Comcast’s alternative to more expensive surveillance options a la Flock, or workplace presence sensor arrays.

Regardless of the basic privacy invasion that we all know Comcast is doing. Buy your own cable modem and router. Comcast charges you to use theirs, so they pay for themselves in a couple years.
It’s always been a ripoff from the start. The modem / router is far cheaper than whatever they charge you to rent it over a year. Additionally they were broadcasting public wifi hotspots from your rented modem for a while (probably still are) and now this. Having said that, walk into any random friend’s house, and what will you see? A big stupid rented Comcast modem.
