The difference is that having a computer attached to the TV provides significant value to the customer. When people came into BestBuy they’d ask “Does this TV have Netflix?”
I don’t see a built in camera driving that kind of consumer behavior. What feature would they come in and ask for that requires a camera?
The spying with a SmartTV is also hidden and and hard to imagine. A camera on the TV in their bedroom though? They’ll both notice that and understand that it sees them naked.
With Smart TVs if there are two TVs on a shelf, one with “Netflix installed” and one without, I can see people preferring the TV with Netflix.
With cameras if there are two TVs on a shelf, one with a camera and one without, I see people leaving the camera on the shelf almost every time.
