I was listening to this on the way home tonight, and I recalled that many people here use a CPAP.

Thanks.  I guess mine is old.  It has a data card, but no one has ever asked me for it.  When I reorder supplies, the computer always asked if I am using it at least 4 hours a night. 

Can I assume he hooked this new machine up to his wifi?

No.  It has a built-in cellular data link.  But if you really don't want them spying on you, you can put in it "airplane mode".
