Comment on Anon buys a TV without researching
TomAwsm@lemmy.world 13 hours agoFrom what I have heard, this is not true for all brands. Some won’t work without being connected. Shouldn’t be legal, but here we are.

I don’t know what you’re going through in your life, but I wish you all the best. Just wanted to pass on some information I thought was relevant.

Yes. I’ve heard some brands will search for nearby devices of the same brands that are already connected to the internet so that even if YOU didn’t connect the TV to WiFi, it still calls home/gets ads.
