>Korean TVs take snapshots of your screen multiple times a second and run those images trough AI image recognition algorithms to accurately describe what the user is doing. That info is phoned back home. This spying only happens when you use your TV as a monitor and use your own media trough HDMI or other cable. Spying is not happening if you watch TV, netflix or YouTube. They are only interested in YOUR personal content.

you could disconnect your TV from the internet and have an external NUC with Linux or something as your OS for multimedia, I'd guess
but the real solution is that we need to have FOSS firmwares for TVs.

Petition the EU to ban it, and try to live in the EU yourself. When the EU passes laws, corpos will comply with them since the EU is one of the single biggest markets on the planet. And the EU is the only market that even pretends to give a shit about average people.

i hate this mindset
you should not allow spying on people to become common
because youre not interesting doesnt mean that someone else isnt left having to try to save everyone and this makes it harder for people to be born and gradually come to the idea of helping others
its wrong on many levels

It's honestly not. The only real killer is the roaming if you don't buy and put in a domestic Sim.
If you are SMALL scale as a business, you can get 10c a month SIMs with like $2 per gb of data for low usage pools. If you're a mega Corp, it's even cheaper. And if you can get some cuck company to front the other side of it in exchange for the data, you can cover the costs and profit.

>>102586671
There are multiple ways to prevent the tv from connecting to the internet.

If you cant figure it out, you deserve to have that data sent out.

of course they care, that's why they support this technology

first tv i bought with my own money was LG 3dtv. maybe 2012 idk.
connected it to network so it could play files directly from computer, wrote a little browser control for it that could change channel and input over ethernet connection. discovered it had a thing where you could request an image of whatever was on screen via ethernet.
then i read an article about how it phoned home about file names of any usb stick plugged into it. the outcome was that they pushed an update where you had to agree to them spying on you in order to use smart tv services iirc. annoying because it updated OTA and then wouldn't allow any ethernet interaction without agreeing to new eula which i never did out of principle.
felt pretty retarded and pissed off desu. i have a second hand digital signage display as a tv now. never give lg any money ever again. i never liked any smart or network shit always thought it was a gimmick but that experience really solidified it. never bought a new pc never used windows never owned a smart phone. fuck every single one of them.
