Mine was a half-joke, but it’s not the first time chinese hardware was caught sending data around. Now I can’t recommend anything specific since the last time I bought a router was ages ago, and even though having one running OpenWRT is good I’d avoid it to be on the safer side.
They’re ridiculous and pathetic. This will only ensure that I’ll never buy anything Nintendo, and instead buy Palworld, even if I don’t play it immediately.
