And even if there are legal ramifications. The fines are low enough that its a cost of doing business for the most part. Especially in comparison to the amount of money they make spying. Possibly on top of whatever else they sell depending on the business in question.
Most insidious part about the whole thing is the fact that most legal stuff is “licensed” rather than owned. A convenient legal fiction to allow them to revoke access at any time and (likely) keep your money.
Legal stuff isn’t much better these days. Advertisements unless you pau more, user tracking regardless, etc.
And these are the people who demand id to get back into your account if they find activity they deem suspicious.
At least with a TV you can actually turn off the WiFi and just not connect a network cable to it. In my case the TV periodically tries to connect and prompts me to check the network settings, so I’m fairly sure its not trying to randomly connect to an open WiFi network. YMMV I suppose. A decent workaround would be to set up a diff router or ssid and just blackhole that network from getting online at all. But that can be more technical than some people are comfortable with.
Don’t connect the TV to the internet. Buy a settop box like a shield TV and stream through that.

A 3d remake like chrono cross got could be good
Not only that but between the various web tracking technologies that advertisers use and people’s reuse of credentials for convenience you now have an easier way to associate a real identity with a specific person as they browse the internet. A boon to advertisers and other interested parties alike.
And even if you beat all of that. You can still be crucified in the court of public opinion. As much as it may be cathartic to see x person being sent to prison for whatever reason there are significant issues with “naming and shaming” someone simply accused of a crime, of which there is a non zero chance that they are innocent. Sure name and shame them after they’re convicted if you must, to show everyone the system still works or whatever. But not before then because that stuff can seriously derail your life.
Try Firefox relay. It can set you up with a randomly generated email address that will forward to your regular email.
I’m hoping I get picked for persona 5 royal. Happy holidays everyone.
Lg TVs do occasionally nag you about connecting to the internet but are otherwise fine completely disconnected.
