Does anyone got any television recommendations for dumb tv’s or other words none smart tv’s? Or even a tv that is smart but the software is open sourced making it privacy friendly?

    I’ve had some that actually will not let you use it until you have accepted the user agreement, sold your soul, created an account, verified the account, then signed in. That is also why I won’t buy any TV that uses Roku.

      Can’t you just go through the setup process with some dummy account details then just disconnect everything when it’s done updating?

        I actually tried creating an account then just signing out, but then it just sent me RIGHT back to the login screen. You had to be logged in to even use the damn thing.
