Really putting the router in an aluminum enclosure/Faraday cage if you can is the only way to prevent this. Then just use the lan ports on the device, but also make sure the LAN cables are shielded because it could be using them as antennas given how compromised wifi router firmwares usually are.

You have to shield your home from your neighbor's emitters too. And from the police radar surveillance van sitting in the street in front of your house.

Nothing a kind note and an order of small-batch artisan donuts can't solve.

And space lasers.

That's what tin foil houses are for, obviously.

And for saving them from raging wildfires. (Seriously! Wrapping a structure completely in foil can save it, even when that structure is in a forest with no clearing arund it. I guess it's like baking a potato in hot coals.)

What do I do about my thermal signature though?

Wim Hoff method. ;)

Cover yourself in mud from a river bank.

Those shielded Ethernet cables better be properly grounded.

In the past I've opened up my provider-supplied cable modem and removed the wifi card which was luckily modular.

This was a really retarded ISP (UPC Ireland) that constantly reset my modem to it's factory settings including a way too simple wifi password of 8 uppercase characters excluding the I, L and O for number confusion reasons. The entropy was so low that I could crack so my neighbor's passwords in half a day. Basically they were backdooring my entire network.

I emailed them but of course nothing happened. They also disabled other features that could alleviate this like bridge mode. It was such a terrible company but sadly the only one I could get in that backwater town.

Why do you post this? It doesn't add to anything.

I prefer to wear a tin foil suit thank you.

You can also get creative with a metallic fishnet fabric.

I know this is a joke, but wouldn't that still leave a you sized hole?

Come on that’s just plain silly, they’ll just see you dancing around naked in your hat. It’s not like Wi-Fi routers can see inside your brain, as the article clearly says. No one on HN ever reads the article before commenting any more!

The hat only works against the microwave oven mind control. Sheesh.

No, that's the magnetite paint for the microwave that does that. Tin foil is for the Nostradamus brain rays from Uranus.
