What the fuck does a WiFi Access Point need a cloud connection and an account for? Other than spying on me?

Well, it was possible without this a few firmware updates ago.

I did some more research: The device has the exact same hardware as the 3x more expensive one you actually own, just other firmware.

    There isn't only OpenWrt as an option. Look at making your own FreeBSD or OpenBSD based router. You can even repurpose old laptops for this and, if necessary, buy some PCI/PCIe/M.2 network cards. Of course, if you don't like the BSD license, then you're out of options until Linux kernel support is added.
