Cloud-based configuration? Isn't that virtually
always
a terrible idea security wise for a router? Is it another form of "lawful intercept"?

Depends on if you think un-updated, bad PRNG devices are better.

This isn't an "either-or" situation. You can have an auto-updating router which doesn't depend on configuring via a third party service.

Not really. If the router auto-updates, it has to get that update from somewhere. If anything, being able to push firmware is
more
powerful than being able to push configuration.
