Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing?

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.

That is a pretty horrific thing. Policy is so far behind if that is allowed.

I must say, your typing is flawless for a drunk person.

  Learned skill. I spend a lot of time drunk and Android tends to do a pretty good job of guessing what I’m swiping.
  
  I also tend to reread what I wrote when I’m drunk. I actually generally do a worse job sober because I won’t double check my work.
  
  And it was signage displays for the dumb TVs I was thinking of, and Sharp TVs used to have unsecured wireless networks that you couldn’t really turn off, so they’d make a mesh with other smart TVs. I believe I’ve heard the same thing about Samsung as well.
  
  Now it’s time to go jog myself sick.
