Day 1,826 of telling people they can buy a smart TV and just not connect it to the internet
Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing?

It is still possible to buy “dumb” TV’s. Tons of businesses need them for display purposes (like at fast food restaurants and corporate expos, etc, etc), but you need to search for commercial displays. Like this one.

Wait until you learn tvs can piggy back off other tvs that are connected to the internet.

I cant find definitive proof. But it hardly would suprise me with the shady shit samsung does.

Bless you for providing a link; I can’t tell you howany times I’ve seen this advice without any link or instructions on how to locate these

No problem! I work in television/live streaming production. Finding and buying “dumb” monitors when we build out new sets and presentation spaces is literally part of my job.
