New HomePod less of a rumor and more of a developer heads-up. Came from their dev conference this appears to be the source
For the privacy concerned, a VERY trivial overview (of what you can find out from a basic search):
This has a microphone and is a SIRI device.
Apple has a stated privacy policy and an advertising opt-out information sharing (same as other siri devices like the iPhone)
Data is encrypted
The basic takeaway is that it's a standard "smart speaker" with a general basic effort to not be leaky with private data.
Pick your level of paranoia: I mean this earnestly because it's your choice and there's no wrong answer with regard to keeping your mind at ease . . .
For price, at $300, these are a joke but at this price, if you have to scratch the "gotta buy it" itch, pretty good deal.A 'better sound option' used to be the Airport Express with a 3.5mm jack and AirPlay where you could send it music via AirPlay, but, alas 2018 they discontinued them.

The networking industry needs someone like Apple so they can step up their game

You know, I think that the biggest gripe I have about Apple is their obsession with hiding features and options.
The desktop OS has so many things you can no longer override with Linux config files that it's plain disheartening.
The high-end routers are *ALL* garbage for the basic reason that the 'parental controls' are either proprietary subscriptions or just DROP DNS. You 'turn off' the internet and everything keeps going if you don't need to requery.
It was VERY promising when a few companies worked WITH open source development to allow DDWRT on their hardware, then it vanished.

Ubiquiti never had a simple set up until the Dream Router launched so now it's a contender. Every networking issue I've had was solved once I jumped from Google Wifi & TP-Link to Unifi. I've seen good things about Eero tho as well. Mccanntech is the go to for networking tests. Don't hold your breath for Apple to get back into networking.

I am still running Airport Exteme in AP mode, with Uniquiti nano station bridge to the garage and front ended by an EdgeRouter lite. I have used the UBNT AP's, and while they are good, they are not crazy stable, nothing like AirPort Extreme or enterprise gear. Fits in that soho space about right. AirPort Extreme was always essentially enterprise class for the consumer market. Multiple spacial streams, solid features and real throughput, it's just really old at this point. Entirely outpaced by modern equipment.
Thank for the tip on Mccanntech, I am not sure that I've seen it.
Also, to stay on topic…. $80 for a HomePod mini is decent, I think on pace with last years Black Friday two pack bundle.
