Let me share here my two cents.

First NAT is only working with IP4, with IP6 NAT will be removed (mid/long-term) as you will have your own IP6 segment for all your home network devices. Some may only get a public IP6 stack on their router and be forced to switch to IP6 also in their home network. The industry & Government want your device id to collect more data. (Yes, you could call it a crude theory, but ... you never know). You already have today installed bridge devices, if you mobile phone will use WIFI add home in parallel of GSM.

Every sw package could have a backdoor by accident, which might not be recognised & closed fast enough. So my strategy is to reduce th enumber of sw packages to a minimum needed.
Now, saying that I trust you that moode has no intend to collect data like SONOS and all the friendly lady speakers (Alexa,Siri etc.) do. Nevertheless are more than 1000 sw packages on the moode device. Some sw may not be installed by moode, they are already installed through the RPi OS ( like X11 server ).
I like the approach that OPENelec or Libraelec driving for KODI: just enough OS to enable Kodi.
A very positiv fact for moode is, that when I review my logs on the pihole, moode has only a few dns request and most are to connect to home-lan servers (for music files)

BTW: I am not wearing any hat, nor do I think I am paranoid - the fact that I had never a virus nor any other data loss through external access makes me very happy and keep me to be cautious also in the future Big Grin
