so many security experts try to find some indication of secret hacks and "mysterious network signals" and can't actually prove any of it. if they have the device in front of them, they should be able to... but they can't.
so they find "odd anomalies" and odd network traffic (that happen all the time for any number of reasons) and try to blame it on the hub because, well, that's what gets the blog traffic. fear uncertainty and doubt is what gets the clicks, which is what gets the ad revenue.
their articles are always misleading... they work backwards and start at the conclusion. they plug in the hub and then hunt for the evidence that leads to it being a secret spy device. then they make tenuous connections without actual proof.
why? because a blog post with "your $9 hub is just a plain hub and the reason its so cheap isnt because it's a chinese spy device, but rather it's because its a commodity that can be produced in massive quantities for pennies" isn't a very sexy headline

- 13% 1-star reviews
- regular price has been $14.62 since being tracked *roughly* 4 months
Combine all that information and you have a great way to waste $10
That said still tempting as a backup.

These cheap hubs seem like a great deal, but have tended to cause the weirdest glitches in things I've connected to them. And it's so hard to troubleshoot because it's not apparent that the hub is the cause. I wouldn't bother.
