But when everyone keeps buying ""smart"" TVs and accepting the spyware, pretty soon they will start shipping with baked in 4G chips, and there will be no other option. Vote with your wallet by never buying a smart TV under any circumstance. They are cheaper than actual TVs because the data collected is so lucrative - buying one is implicitly supporting that slimy business model, even if you don't connect to WiFi.
- denkmoon 4y agoThere are no non-smart/"actual" TVs. Find a 55" OLED that doesn't have "smart" features. I mean personally I don't care so long as I don't see ads, but the advice you're really giving is "don't buy a TV". Can't say I disagree though.
- bogwog 4y agoDon’t even need 4G chips, just a regular ol’ wifi/bluetooth module thanks to stuff like Amazon Sidewalk: https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/devices/introducing-amazon-sidewalk https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/devices/introducing-amazon-...
