I have a new phone with Android 8.0 on it. Whenever I pass through or by somewhere there is an Xfinity hotspot a popup appears and sort of halts everything else asking if I want to connect. It is always annoying, but, I can necessarily get to it and deal with it if I am driving or doing other things.
I've heard that it is that somehow, somewhere, sometime you have signed into a Xfinity hotspot. It creates an account on the network apparently and not just at the location you are at. I guess if you have an Xfinity account for cable and all the rest you get one as well. I may have done the former, but, I don't think I have the latter, although I do have a Comcast account just for cable TV. Maybe they created an Xfinity account for me and my phones somehow. If I go their site I can't find any password I'm likely to have used that lets me sign in though. Anyway, I hear if you can log in it lists any devices or yours and you can delete them.
How can this thing be blocked or blacklisted. I don't have a rooted phone yet. If I can do it with just the phone that would be great,but, I'll use an app if there is one.
