UNPLUG Your Smart TV NOW!
Your Smart TV may be watching you just as closely as you’re watching it.Many modern televisions use Automated Content Recognition, or ACR, to identify what appears on the screen. That can include streaming shows, cable, gaming consoles, Blu-rays, and even content coming through HDMI. The data can then be used to build detailed viewing profiles for advertising.
Texas has already sued major manufacturers including Samsung, LG, Sony, Hisense, and TCL over how this technology is disclosed and used. Samsung and LG later agreed to stronger consent and privacy protections in Texas.
The problem goes beyond one brand. Smart TVs have become part hardware product, part advertising platform, and the data generated after you buy the TV can be worth more than the television itself.
Before your next movie night, your privacy settings may be worth checking.
