And a guest wifi that is password free on by default. All it takes is a neighbor to get a new router from the ISP. I just had to turn my guest wifi off because I noticed a lot of bandwidth on it (likely coming from our neighbor who was bragging about cord cutting).

Even that WiFi is gated by having to have an account with the ISP at least it was with Comcast.

what stops Comcast and TV makers from making a deal to use it?

So now Comcast is going to make a deal that TVs can use their guest WiFi network without logging in but only to send surveillance information?

I've literally never seen a router with a guest wifi enabled by default, from any ISP or otherwise - is that a common thing where you live?

It was common that Comcast has a separate WiFi guest network where anyone with a Comcast account could sign in and use it.
