TechWhat Comcast says its motion-sensing routers collect

After online backlash, Comcast says its WiFi Motion service is opt-in and stores up to seven days of motion history in the Xfinity app. The records show when movement is detected and which connected Wi-Fi device detected it, but contain no images, video, audio, or identifying details about people or pets. Comcast says valid legal process could require disclosure.
