Basically the only option I have found for a non-connected/smart/spyware tv in the last few months are commercial displays. They must price in the ad revenue to the consumer stuff because the price of those commercial displays is ~4x.
Can't you simply not connect your display to the Internet, or place it after a firewall which is blocking the internet traffic.
I seriously don't understand your concerns.
This. I believe projectors are still untainted as of yet as well.
But they need darkness, a relatively large room and a whole spare wall... Wouldn't really fit a projector screen in the little corner between the fridge and the cupboard where our TV hangs from an arm, even the smallest ones aren't small enough. And where would you keep the projector itself, on your lap?
A lot of them are adding that stuff. I looked earlier today actually.
