[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 58943, post: 711470"] There is a very simple way to secure Smart TV's 'fairly' well.. OPT-Out of all services and DO NOT accept the terms of service on setup. Without those, nothing much happens to them and you can still use them and update them. The second method is use Pi-Hole then use the Smart-TV telemetry/spying block list. The third method is to simply turn it into a dumb TV and not connect it to the internet exactly 4 times a year to upgrade firmware. Or if you are like me, you employ all three methods to varying degrees. :unsure: [/QUOTE]
