It's wild just how much they're trying to shove AI down our throats.

If I want to avoid connecting my LG smart TV with my network, but I would like to still use a remote with an external device running Jellyfin plugged in via HDMI, what privacy respecting options do I have here? AFAIK, TV sticks run Android and can also collect your data, so my natural guess would be to plug in a device running Linux, but how about remote control?

a firewall with a very strict egress policy would probably be all you need

My next TV, I’m going to look into whether the PCB can be swapped with a computer monitor PCB made by the same company.

Looks like the last update I applied to my LG TV via USB was truly the last one it'll ever receive. No way am I ever connecting my TV to any network, that's what streaming devices are for 🙂
