Ask HN: Which TV do you recommend for privacy?
495 points by LecroJS 18 hours ago | 618 comments
tl;dr: A user is seeking recommendations for a privacy-respecting 4K TV in the 60-80" range, intending to use it solely as a display for an Apple TV rather than relying on built-in smart features. They're willing to pay a premium and are asking whether certain TV brands pair better with Apple TV for minimizing data collection.
HN Discussion:
  • ↑Buy any TV, never connect it to internet, use external device via HDMI with CEC support
  • ~Buy an LG OLED and root it to disable telemetry while keeping smart features
  • ↑Physically disconnect the wireless radio inside the TV for guaranteed privacy
  • ↓Skip TVs entirely and use a projector with separate sound system
  • ↑Buy a commercial display/monitor without Wi-Fi instead of a consumer TV
