My first 4K TV was a Samsung. The last update broke eARC making the Samsung home theater in a box thing I had much more inconvenient.

My 2nd (free in a raffle) Samsung 4K TV connected to my WiFi without a password when a guest in the house casted a video to it despite on setup refusing to consent to any web things due to privacy concerns. Kinda interesting and concerning.

Yikes… I’m definitely not turning the wifi back on after reading that!

  I blocked the TVs MAC address on my router after a factory reset.
  
  It completely ignored my privacy preferences just because someone pressed “cast” on their phone.
