Obihai is deleting unwanted topics
MRTT:
Whee, You say exactly what I was thinking!
There are reasons i had my auto firmware disabled, dang it! I'll roll back to what I had... if I can
... and pretty soon I'll be looking at some wireshark captures or just put some serious restrictions on what traffic is allowed from my obi... I'm guessing it phones home every so often.
What was the point of forcing this update on obi's that don't use GV?
Ugh.

I think remote control is a fantastic feature for supporting less technical customers, but it should have some semblance of being under your control. Make me answer the phone and enter a PIN before a remote user gains access -- even if they really still have control but are doing it to make you feel better.
An OBi that is not associated with the OBiTALK Web Portal, has ALL its Auto Provisioning and Auto Firmware Update options set to Disabled, and has a strong ADMIN password in place, can still have its contents viewed, altered, or updated by Obihai without the knowledge or consent of the owner. It goes much further than just firmware updates.

Probably a call someone had to make - force update on everyone and fix most, and deal with exceptions

GM can access OnStar devices, OBiHai can access your VoIP adapters, and local utility company can access your thermostat - everything for your benefit, of course!
What they say? Just because you are paranoid doesn't mean that they are not after you >:(

Companies that you allow to direct deposit money into your bank account can also debit money from that account.
Life is never a one-way street.
