When I was in school they provided me an outlook email. I used it only for school and made sure not to put in too much personal detail. If I had to use a personal email I'd use an alias. When I had to access it at home I'd login via a website. No systems schools use are in any way good for privacy so just keep it isolated as well as possible

Create guest networks with AP isolation for IOT and guests. Switch to a good DNS such as Quad9 or NextDNS, enable Wireguard for all devices on your network. Set a strong admin password and disable remote/WAN access to your router.

Check out the list of extra packages available on their website, you'll get ideas for all types of cool stuff you can do.

Just got a Pocket Nova and put it on my guest network with AP isolation. Upon connecting to WiFi I immediately saw it connect to Facebook, ESPN, and some others I can't remember at the moment

Yeah I'm aware of all that. The VSee box and some other one were the most well known. My brother actually has a VSee box and refuses to get rid of it... I will put it on my guest network to be safe, like you said, doesn't mean it doesn't happen. Was just curious if anything like this had actually been documented.

I like the more frequent map updates. I just added a bunch of places and am looking forward to seeing them
