Some TV's connect automatically to open networks to upload data
I'd like to see a source on that claim.
Regardless, another option is to hook it up to a dummy wifi network that doesn't connect to anything and then hook up whatever to an input.
i found a source, it is a random reddit post though https://web.archive.org/web/20210601000527/https://www.reddit.com/r/security/comments/bpjky4/worried_about_your_smart_tv_listening_in_simply/
I'm going to need a source on that so I can avoid those kinds of TVs.
not the most trustworthy source but heres one https://web.archive.org/web/20210601000527/https://www.reddit.com/r/security/comments/bpjky4/worried_about_your_smart_tv_listening_in_simply/
