I don’t know. Is it internet connected? If so I wouldn’t trust it…
Many home grade routers allow you to set up a guest WiFi network though so you may be able to isolate it that way if you’re concerned/can determine what telemetry it’s sending from the privacy policy or other reports.
This article talks about their website’s standard creepy tracking cookies and stuff, which depressingly everyone does. https://blog.avast.com/what-peloton-knows-about-you-avast
But if it has Bluetooth and WiFi it has a lot of potential for tracking all sorts of things. I don’t have one and don’t know if they’re using that potential, but it’s there. It would be interesting to investigate.

I only got into privacy stuff like a year ago, but I was really focused on thinking about my phone and not as much my home network (unless we’re talking like, cloud services that are also accessed on desktop, I was already worried about those). That’s a spooky but totally valid thought imo. Agree, would be a good new rabbit hole to explore.

It’s a big rabbit hole for sure, with how many household devices are internet connected and the concerning capabilities they offer. And an expensive one if you seek to replace devices at home.
