   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":

   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."

   @thomasfuchs my experience of this is that a lot of it stems from language expansion and/or style guide updates.

   So if you need to fix something minor in legacy code, suddenly you need to fix a bunch of stuff.

   In practical terms, this means WG installs from FDroid, using Izzy repo updates without ever requesting user permission for background updates.

   So it really sounds at this point you're purposedly misleading and obscuring this fact.
