Cisco Pushing 'Cloud Connect' Router Firmware, Allows Web History Tracking
"Reports have started popping up that Cisco is pushing out and automatically (without permission) installing their new Cloud Connect firmware on consumer routers. The new firmware removes the user's ability to login and administer the router locally. You now must configure the router using Cisco's Cloud connect service. If that wasn't bad enough, the fine print for this new service allows Cisco to track your complete internet history. Currently, it appears the only way to disable the Cloud Connect service is to unplug your router from the internet."
WOW!!! Reading what others are going through it's just mind boggling that Cisco put this out. Granted it's only for the EA3500, EA4500, E4200v2, routers, but still..."Reports have started popping up that Cisco is pushing out and automatically (without permission) installing their new Cloud Connect firmware on consumer routers.
