Is there a maker of privacy respecting robot vacuum cleaners that you know of?

Not a maker exactly, but there is an open source hobbyist software project for certain brands of robot vacuum: https://valetudo.cloud

It lets you run them without any cloud connectivity or forced updates.

iRobot still sells all the parts for their old, non-cloud vacuums if you don't mind buying used and doing DIY parts swaps. They're very repair friendly: No special tools required and easy to take apart.
