The other issue is smart TVs carry a whole bunch of unwanted electronics that will definitely become outdated and unsupported, and will quite likely fail. And be expensive, or just impossible to fix when they do.
- clircle 5y agoIs this a problem? TVs become outdated with or without internet connection. I guess I don't understand you. TVs are so cheap now, if anything is actually expensive, you are better off just buying another (cheap!) TV.
- jacknews 5y agoIt's not such a problem if we want to keep on a 'disposable society' path, but even then, the more complex the electronics, the more likely they are to fail, or just be bricked when support ends. It definitely is a problem if we want to make things that last longer and are repairable.
