AI has nothing to do with this and it was happening before AI became a thing. Data is king and companies want to sell it.
But it also precedes snooping, too. Which shows how old it is. But it has Ethernet, and can access the local mediaservers. It actually only calls home when I use "check for updates". Which I have not done in years, and won't do until it dies, because it works.
