Yes, but you can replace that with your own unit they don't have control over.
…and most people don’t. it’s an additional expense, additional work, and frankly not worth the headache for like 80%+ of users.
I used to work in this space, and have first-hand knowledge about the prevalence of third party modems with a sample set of over 100k people. What’s your experience?
Nobody is arguing against that. I fully agree that most people don't. The point was only that you can.
