Anyone who owns an LG smart TV must inform all guests and family members that they are being monitored – this is required by LG’s current terms of use. Meanwhile, LG monitors install potential malware and surveillance software on a connected Windows computer.
Bought a LG TV and a Monitor three years ago. Last time I will do that. Really happy about my decision not to let the TV have access to the internet.
Yep, mine has never reached the internet, it is connected but is blocked at the firewall so I can still hook home assistant up to it.
What does a home assistant do for you in regards to a monitor? A tv I can understand a bit better but even then it just seems like the tv would be secondary to your media player/device
Yeah fist time I saw an ad on my smart monitor I reset it and never connected it to my wifi again
What’s the point of a smart monitor? It’s connected to a PC. The PC is smart.
I’d love to know who wants all that extra crap
Good luck finding a brand NOT doing it by the time you’re ready for a new one.
A lot of bad ones out there, but some are worse than others. For example, I’m not going to consider a Samsung TV because of how many times they’ve done something sketchy
LG is also falling down the list with this incident
