The TV world has been a pot of controversy thanks to a two-hour-and-15-minute video from Gamers Nexus claiming LG TVs are nefariously spying on everything you do. They can record and store audio even when they seem to be off, track everything you watch, and could even be hacked remotely and turned into covert surveillance […]
Sigh… it never ends.
All people had to do was say no to “smart tvs” But “Android pretty” I’m not innocent because I have a Bluray player with apps, but it does require an Ethernet cord so that’s helpful.
Oh that’s all? Really? Have you tried to buy a “Not Smart” TV lately? Not exactly any options that are branded as TVs. I tried. I would have had to sacrifice quality and pay more for the privilege to buy a device intended to be used to display mostly static images as a menu board not be great at playing movies and high FPS video games. As a consumer, I was never really get a choice or a vote in this smart TV switchover decision.
Yeah I looked for dumb tvs, but my options were all either smart or expensive and designed for non TV uses, so I just prioritized one that doesn’t need to connect to internet
Not until we end it, together.
