This is the big LG television surveillance documentary story GN have been working on for a couple of months, and that they previewed a few days ago. The complete pervasiveness of spying upon not just you and what you watch but _every person and every device around every set_ is genuinely staggering. And it gets worse if you use their apps, particularly the LG TV "network": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6IFVTcM28KA Having an old set DOES NOT HELP YOU; they've been adding these spying functions in firmware updates. So DO NOT BUY ANYTHING LG. Certainly not anything "smart." #LG #surveillance #spying #evesdropping #CorporateSurveillance #SmartTV #DoNotBuy #television #electronics #HomeElectronics #journalism #news #GamersNexus

Okay, LISTEN UP DO NOT BUY LG. Not ANYTHING LG. Not only are they actively spying on you, not only have they updated their TOS to include requiring you to NOTIFY GUESTS ABOUT WIRETAPPING LAW, on Windows they're pushing ADWARE through WINDOWS UPDATE along with their monitor drivers - including on OLD monitors. Gamers Nexus has all the deets: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9uefFYe6bM DO NOT BUY LG PRODUCTS. GN had a three-year-old monitor get an "update" that was adware. It wasn't even part of their investigation. It just happened to come in while they were investigating. DO NOT BUY LG PRODUCTS. #adware #spyware #surveillance #fascism #LG #FuckLG #DoNotBuy #boycott
