Wished they still sold dumb TVs 😔
I agree but I think fundamentally the smart tv hardware is so cheap to bundle in (and gives them hope of revenue) that it probably doesn’t add to the price.
Just set the default HDMI input to something else and ignore.
It LOWERS the price. They make more money selling your data than selling you the hardware. I don't want to participate in this system. And no you can't just use the HDMI, Samsung for one is known to automatically connect to any open network! Let alone any security issues that might allow an attacker to remotely connect to it.
True.
