I’m just saying every TV I’ve looked at has a built in Alexa. I know my phone has one, but does every fucking device need listening software? This is fucking ridiculous! Just 20 years ago people would be appalled by this.

Just don't hook it up to the internet. Buy a roku and use it instead.
You heard the one about the cure for the rona? You take your TV and put it in the pool.
The roku hooks into the internet
yes but it doesn't have a camera or a microphone (except for the remote's mic)
So close...
The correct answer is, STOP WATCHING TV.
Disconnect your brain from the programming. It's all Jewish propaganda.
What's a TV??
Read the mouse print, some have cameras too.
At least you can cover up the camera. How to turn off the listening device?
When I bought a fire stick years ago for cheap a needle easily fixed the mic in the remote. 😉
I use a laptop with camera facing away because I'm using a monitor. I doubt there's any sure way.
You open the TV and desolder or cut the wires to the microphone and camera.
I was looking for a small TV for a bedroom. The only thing I could find that didn't have listening devices were considered computer monitors. They have HDMI in, which is all I needed to connect.
It looks like a TV 🤷♂️
You can get a number Celt sized monitor. I have one in my office for doin plan reviews.
Buy an old one at a yard sale.
Don't let the fridge hear you either.
No idea why a fridge needs a screen or Mic either
Samsung made a TV where the screen is also a camera.
Sony and Microshaft made game consoles that have a connected device that does the same.
The real Q is- how do we figure out if the electronic device is secretly connecting itself to Goverzilla or other creepy crawler hidden network?
I think Sceptre still makes dumb TVs.
There is an easy solution to that problem. Open it up and take a wire cutters to the microphone. Problem solved.
Amen & I believe we will have to give it up & go outside. Now don’t get me wrong but just by me even feeling some angst over letting go of the tv makes me cringe but I know that is what I need to do. Although I have been awake & stocking up since 2014 - the allure is strong- “it’s the end of the world as we know it & right now at this point I feel fine “ just a little add lib
Do it, you'll be happy you did.
That song has really held a different meaning ever since 2020 I hear it way differently.
The whole TV is a kind control device why even get one…
You will run into that with everything. We’ve been struggling with headphones
Don't shit yourself but all tvs made after digital came out have multi cams and michrophones. I tried to find locations on the different mfr's (lol - mfr's= manufacters) of the 3 that I have but didn't anything back. But I remember a Q post showing a pic of some sports bar here in the US with 3 or more big screen tvs facing costomers and Q saying "who's watching who?"
I have one sitting the floor we want to get rid of. Yours for free. Along with the over the air box.
