Hi there, I’m looking to get into self-hosting for privacy reasons and I wanted to ask y’all: how inadvisable is it to utilize an ISP-owned router/modem? I feel like they’re able to track everything I do online with their more than likely integrated spyware.


Each of these points makes it worth it. Price is always overlooked. Renting is same as a subscription. If you buy your modem it’s more expensive, but at the end you still have a modem. Renting at the end you have nothing.
