I'm honestly shocked that nobody has mentioned mesh networks. It might also just scan for any unsecured network it can connect to without informing you in any way. Not connecting your TV to your WiFi is not nearly enough to preventing it from phoning home. You need to open the TV and ground the antenna(e) to physically disable the wireless capabilities. Even then, there may be other antennae hidden under or inside components you can't disassemble.

Short answer: No. Your smart TV is smarter than you are.

Have you heard of mesh networks?

sorry, the nsfw tag is not enough to save you. swearing is not allowed and you will be punished. your account will not be terminated but be aware that the police are en route.

I saw that actually. Almost fooled me until I saw they had about 10 reviews each.

You really nailed the proportional response this time. It's crazy that this started with me criticizing your wording, and now it ends with you saying I need "specialized help" like you have any authority on the matter at all. What can I say? My ability to pick out dishonest, manipulative, snake-like people remains on point.

Literally only leftists repond with 5x as much text as whatever you said to them

It's like I'm psychicly DDOSing you

Is it really impossible to critisize a leftist even the slightest bit without them flying completely off the handle? I only critisized your wording.

"So your point is..."

Perhaps the single most dishonest way to begin a sentence

If they are hungry enough to ask for it, they probably need it more than me. I can get more food if I'm still hungry.
