Noob here. This is probably the most repeated question, but I don’t know the technical terms to make the appropiate digging online, and thought of asking humans before slopping my way around.

I don’t trust my ISP or the government above it.

The ISP remotely manages the local network! So I installed a router of my own and my devices only to that one.

I would like to encrypt (?) anything that goes out of my own router, so my ISP doesn’t evesdrop what I’m doing even if they want to (I know I know… if they really wanted, they could just send friends to my house).

Using Linux, Android GOS, and Pihole. They live under a “picked-up-from-a-shelf” router; and that router under theirs.

(I cannot get a different ISP)

Thanks

    They literally to vide them for free. And why so people use their service. Do you know how many people just use their modem and they up sell people WiFi repeaters and the like. The hardware is a fold mine for ISPs.
