It also records you having sex. They call it "fingerprinting".

>Communism is ba-AAAACKYou voted for it. This is precisely the terminals rage of capitalism where COPROs try to surveil and control every aspect of human existence.
>>544867649I only use my 4k tv as a giant computer monitor. Can’t imagine actually using the smart tv shit.
>>544867649pretty stupid when that just makes sonos the better soundbar than samsung when you can switch off the mic
No shit, how do you think the cost of 60" flatscreen TVs went from $12000(2004-5) to $1200? You think technology and mass production did that? They're recovering those losses somewhere. Same with game consoles. And phones.
>>544867864But your tv listening to you would be a staple in communism. An intelligence agency with overreaching authority is as communist as famines
>>544867930They still capture and send data. You have to cut their Wifi and BT antennas because these TVs will even hunt down open networks to connect to wherever possible.They snap pictures of whatever you're displaying on your "monitor" and send the info to a database.

>>544867837GamersNexus did a whole deep-dive on LG tvs doing the same shit. You can go watch it if you're unsure. It's 100% real.
A TV should never be connected to the internet.You're asking for it if you connect anything with sensors to the internet.I even keep my phone mostly disconnected from the internet and only quickly enable that when I absolutely need it for a minute or 2, then disconnect. I already know those 2 minutes will be used to update on my position and other things, but well one day I will get one of those phones with sandboxed apps.
>>544867649and the chinks are scraping the internet
I have an insignia I have to unplug, because it will not turn off.
Cool, now can we have some proofs and not just a literal who's twitter screenshot?
>>544868059Would it?The Soviets and Chinese have produced TV without that. By the way Soviet radios have lasted for 40+ years. No spy devices detected. In fact school kids were ancouraged to take the devices apart for educational reasons.
>>544868398I'm aware. I think this guy in particular is engagement farming.
>>544867649So what? Don't like it don't buy it. You have a problem with capitalism? Besides, if you've got nothing to hide then what do you have to fear? I bet you don't like flock either do you?
>>544867649Bamp, good find OP
>>544868626This is b8
>>544867649All smart TV's are, but why worry about that when you carry a smart phone around with you 24/7?
>>544868553>school kids were encouraged to take the devices apart for educational reasons.Young males in the West used to be encouraged to build basic electronics like crystal radios. We had stores selling electronics kits for children.We don't do this anymore niggaWe on some hood shit
>>544867649I’m finger printing right now
>>544868024you have to physically cut the mic out. if you think "turning it off" by pushing a button or changing a setting actually turns it off, i got some bad news for you bro.
>>544868973>Young males in the West used to be encouraged to build basic electronics like crystal radios.Heathkit had dozens of kits for all skill levels. My dad's oscilloscope, that lasted for decades, was a Heathkit. Heathkit had some version of every consumer electronic device you could think of.When the IC made TVs disposable in the mid-late 80s was when Heathkit started dying.
>>544868973i used to get these kits from radio shack that were like "101 different electronics" or something to that effect, where it was a breadboard and a bunch of wiresthere were instructions on how to wire it to make alarms, clocks, and all kinds of shit
If only these tech companies hadn’t given money to our politicians! There’s nothing we can do. These things know whats on your screen, listens to your mics, and phones it home.
>>544867649Gamers nexus has great videos on this. Glowniggers can use exploits in your Asus router then your LG TV to listen to everything you say.
