As much as it pains me to be seen as agreeing with Marjorie Taylor Greene on anything... she's probably right - in a sense. I mean, anybody with a "smart TV" is probably being spied on. I doubt she's being specifically singled out, but the idea that "smart TV's" are hoovering up some kinds of data (sorry, "telemetry") and sending it back to the mothership, isn't exactly prototypical "tinfoil hat territory" anymore.
- clipsy 3y ago"[I]n a sense" is doing a lot of work there; if she truly is opposed to (this particular instance of) surveillance capitalism she has far more power than any of us do to fight back against it, eg by introducing a bill to regulate or limit such behavior. The fact that she chooses to portray herself as a singled-out victim instead points to some combination of stupidity, selfishness, and media manipulation.
