As the title suggests, I’m in the market for a vacuum that doesn’t phone home, not even for initial setup (if possible). This is my first time stepping into home automation so I’m not familiar with the various FOSS projects in the space. I’m comfortable with modding/rooting the vacuum so throw your suggestions, I’ll research them.

    I believe it is still rootable but via a non-public method. There is a system called VAERS that you request help from. I went through it for one of mine (I had 4 before Dreame lost one during warranty work) and the response was fast and helpful.

        I believe so. They keep the method pretty secret so it can keep working as long as possible. There are also rumors that new methods may be announced in a month or so.
