Even so, article says consumer customers aren't affected, only Comcast's public hotspots.

Except that if you have a Comcast modem & router, they turn your connection into a public hotspot.

Since last year, Comcast's wireless gateways have by default broadcast a second signal that turns each customer's modem and router into a public Wi-Fi hotspot. It's all part of Comcast's plan to create a nationwide Wi-Fi network of more than 1 million hotspots that the cable company can sell access to.
