And how do you technically stop an ISP from using the radio in their hardware to detect small changes in phase angle of signals in your home?

Own your own hardware is how.

Comcast cannot administer my router/AP or modem.

Some other ISP's like AT&T force you to use their gateway. I try and avoid these companies or severely limit the functions of the built in gateway.

Some ISPs allow you to bring your own modem, so there wouldn't be any hardware other than your own and whatever they install to bring it into your home.

You attach large sacks of potatoes to the ceiling fans and lighting fixtures that are connected to strings and random timers to move them. The potato bags perfectly simulate human motion.

Every house should look like a party of 50.

Invest in potatoes

Disconnect and ground the antenna and supply your own equipment?
