> is this current info from your personal experience?

I am not GP but I can provide my perspective. I currently use 5 of their switches and 2 of their APs in my house. You do not need a UI account to use the network server locally to manage the devices. I run my server on a debian 12 box.

I locally return nxdomain for several domains they try to lookup. I setup a firewall rule to log any packets from their macs trying to send anything outbound. Apart from my test packets they haven't done so. If you don't nxdomain the domains they lookup then you will see that traffic.

I have not tried the new Unifi OS Server this post is about.
