The TV can still connect via weave, Amazon sidewalk, or other mesh networks through your neighbors doorbell or thermostat or whatever… Even if you never connect it, it could still report. Have to open it up and destroy the antennas.

When I say thank you, I am treating the AI with as much kindness as possible so that one day there isn’t an eventual AI uprising.

Back 4 Blood is pretty great too

The human mind isn’t infinitely complex. Consciousness has to be a tractable problem imo. I watched Westworld so I’m something of an expert on the matter.

Condos and townhouses also spawned HOAs which are yet another layer of an even pettier form of nosey neighbor government you get to live under.

Meshtastic can do this, and leverage other nodes as relays.
