I'd rather just not have a tv

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Just don't connect it to the internet.

Aren't some companies thinking of releasing TVs that won't work unless connected to the internet?

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I'm sure they're thinking about it. Anyone who buys one of those deserves no better.

Don't some try to locate public access points nearby? Or is it just an internet myth?
