If you have any question on truth worthiness, you can flash stock openwrt on them. You just lose out on their proprietary webUI and pre installed plugins. I believe their firmware is public on GitHub though.
but in your opinion Do you think their proprietary UI could be a risk for privacy /security ?
I haven't done a code review so I can't answer that question with facts. I do think however, that anything that bootstraps a FLOSS framework like openwrt could easily be a risk to privacy.
You use privacy and security interchangeably here. They are not the same.
