Ubiquiti Networks is fending off customer complaints after emitting a firmware update that caused its UniFi wireless routers to quietly phone HQ with telemetry.
It all kicked off when the US-based manufacturer confirmed that a software update released this month programmed the devices to establish a secure connection back to Ubiquiti servers and report information on Wi-Fi router performance and crashes.
