Comment on Smart TVs take snapshots of what you watch multiple times per second
archomrade@midwest.social 1 month agoI have a Samsung smart TV that is not connected to any networks, and every few days it will display a ‘detecting device’ loading screen when switching to my input that fails after 30 seconds or until I cancel it (canceling does not seem to impact its functioning)
I have no evidence but I strongly suspect this to be related to attempting to record and send device data to a remote server.

I have noticed this too, I have to press the ‘back’ button on the remote to get the computer output.
