They simply don’t exist anymore. The only choice is to do this with a smart TV and never connect it to the internet.
Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing?

Get a dumb TV and plug in a cheap computer where you can pirate everything

If it has an HDMI port, it can be a dumb TV. Just don’t connect it to wifi, easy

I’m not sure they exist, but either way, just plug something in and don’t connect the TV itself to the internet.

Sceptre has some dumb TVs. You can also still get the display TVs that companies use. I’m drunk so I forget what they’re called.

Oh that’s a point, probably not cheap though, maybe not good for home cinema? Not heard of Sceptre, will check out. I’m happy just not connecting my TV mind you.

Sceptre is cheapo stuff. And at least one brand of smart TV is wardriving to find networks behind your back (again, drunk, I can’t remember which right now) and creating mesh networks with other TVs of the same type.
