Is your ROUTER selling your data??

All traffic from devices connecting to your Wi-Fi passes through your router.

How much do you know about what your router is actually doing with that data?

Which data does it collect?

Is it tracking the websites you visit?

Is it selling your data to 3rd parties?

A great article was released this week in CNet by Ry Crist, diving into all of this, and as an expert who has been researching routers for years he was able to dig into the privacy policies of major router companies and also ask them directly about their data policies.

We dive into what you need to know about routers: the data your router has access to, whether your privacy is at risk, and tools you can use to protect yourself.
