I can see ISPs forcing you to use their modem with this WiFi built in. Then even if you put it in bridge mode, the WiFi stays active while it tracks you.

If an exclusive/monopoly ISP took that approach, the modem could be surrounded by copper mesh which allows air circulation for cooling, but impedes RF.
And if everyone in the world setup TOR gateways and used TOR for everything then the survailiance and ad instry would collapse overnight.
Back in the real world it would be frightingly effective.
Buying copper mesh from shop is far more accessible to average user than setting up TOR relay.
