What the fuck does a WiFi Access Point need a cloud connection and an account for? Other than spying on me?

Well, it was possible without this a few firmware updates ago.

I did some more research: The device has the exact same hardware as the 3x more expensive one you actually own, just other firmware.

Or worse, they've already been hacked but the data not leaked because the hackers want on-going access to your credentials.

Whenever I hear "it hasn't been a problem", all I hear is "we don't have a plan for when it becomes a problem."
