Google Rolls Out OnHub Router, Powered By Gentoo Linux

As long as it's 'open' to some degree I'll consider it for my next router. Last thing I want is to be locked to device that ends up with us finding out it spies on/tracks us one way or the other.

It's a device from the guys that signed everyone using their mail service up for their failed SEO project; you know it's spying on you because you are their product.
