Ask HN: Which TV do you recommend for privacy?
I have heard good things about Apple TV as a better alternative to most smart TV native apps. Would some TV’s pair better with this than others for privacy? I don’t want the TV doing anything other than being the display for Apple TV.
I am curious what success others have had.
I think Sony/Apple/Huawei/whoevergotballs needs to make a full TV with screen, really expensive, not a set-top box, and for the love of god make it zero ads, zero profiling, and zero camera/mic on by default, allow it to install apps and make it fully customizable. There is plenty of people with money that would pay big bucks for a TV like that
We are all fed up of all this invasive, privacy breaching, ad targeting scheme, and the first one to crack that nut will reap it dearly
So plug it in, and update it once.
Then you can do all the things these other comments suggest.
