What kind of "monitoring" device?

That is an unusually large discount so, it makes me think they are able to reduce so much because they're selling the info they get from that device to a third party. That's the only way I see those economics making sense. If you don't care about that, that's fine. If you do care about your info being sold and being monitored all the time then, read the fine print.
