  The new problem is AI running on the TV taking the images sent to it and processing those separately from everything else, and using that to see what you’re doing and watching.

      You’ll have to rip the networking chip out pretty soon to stop them from sniffing out and connecting to WiFi or other devices connected to the internet.

      Open it up and desolder the networking chip. It's the only way to be sure. Hope you've got a heat gun!

        Why not? That plus a good router forcing all DNS queries to you server of choice (e.g., Asus+Merlin) is the way to go.
