Google routers get the "reset" signal from HQ on "accident"

Elixer

I really, really hate routers that phone home.

Today we experienced an issue with our Google Accounts engine that may have affected your Google Wifi or OnHub device. This caused some devices to automatically reset to the initial state you bought them in. Unfortunately, these devices need to be set up again. We'd like to share our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience.

yeah why anyone would use any network hardware they are not in total control of is beyond me. The last thing you want spying on you is the device that literally EVERYTHING you do online is going through.
 
I bought a router that could run Tomato because a device that has complete control of my LAN can't be entrusted to any closed firmware.
