While I watch TV, my Samsung keeps popping up messages ontop of my show... "The ESPN app will be deprecated on July 2nd 2020". I don't care. I don't use that app. I just use netflix. Its super annoying. I think I'm going to disconnect it from the net after reading this article. I guess the one a few months ago bout the NSA turning it into a microphone didn't concern me as much as losing access to netflix.

Could you set your TV's date too 2025?

I decided the same a year ago. Turns out, you can't disconnect it once it's connected -- it refuses to forget networks or previously set passwords if they worked. I had to just change my wifi password and update everything else.

  Same experience with an LG short-throw projector. I regret it and now it always shows up on the cast menu but it doesn't work.

  Factory resets generally nuke all of the network settings too.
