I knew and I didn’t care still don’t about some things. And I know others who have an idea but don’t care. I’d say right now I’m more anti american then anything else aobtrying to move away from their companies.

My experience is the opposite they know and they don’t care.

But in your use case why does the coffee maker have to connect to the internet?

I have people in myblife who say ice already sold out to Google might as well continue using them. I don’t fight them they can do what they want.

The otherside is just because code is old doesn’t mean its battle tested and doesn’t have bugs.

Sure but there are lots of companies that don’t provide source code for their GPL software. And nothing happens.

No. Everything is spying. Look at what Gamers Nexus said LG makes more money selling data then selling TVs.

And its all closed source and propretieary. So no one would know.

Like a plan get something accepted then make it spy on you.

Gadget bridge does have that functionality though.

Audio books for me. And no bobidy is tracking.

Show me. I want a story about this. Never heard from it except from the comments. In the 2 hour long video they didn’t even say it did this.

Why would you want a white wall. You want ahitry contrast.

This is not an acurste way to see howvmany requests go out. Since it is blocked it well keep trying since it thinks there is something wrong.

The other issue with data harvesting is there is no time limit. They just collect and store it forever.

But what are they hiding there?

See the clothes thing is stupid you also wear clothes to keep you warm, keep your body from damage. There are so many other reasons to wear clothes then hiding things.

So your getting their password or face or fingerprint? Most banking apps have some sort or authentication.

This is a good response I typically don’t have anything to hide. But do I want to share everything with everyone no.

That is a good response. The problem is though they are also collecting data when we are in private. Look at what LG and I grantee you other smart TVs are doing.
