Audio, electronic, visual, thermal, olfactory, or similar information.

Clarification: after a bit of research it seems the olfactory section pertains to CCPA California law, many places have olfactory in the privacy policy because it is required by the law. I can't believe we reached a point where we have to put olfactory in the privacy policy, but then again it won't be long before Smell-O-Vision becomes reality.

Also have a California ip you get a different privacy policy.

Okkk. So you just don't use Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, paramount, NFL, plex, youtube etc?

[-] jimbolauski@lemm.ee 1 points 6 days ago

Did you know you can connect an external device to your television and get Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, paramount, NFL, plex, youtube etc.

[-] humble_pete_digger@lemm.ee 1 points 6 days ago

But ofc I do. So my question is - which device are u connecting?

Unless it's open source and called Kodi or you are connecting some Linux device - they all gonna be spying on u - that's my point.

Ok. Congratufuckinglations - you are the o.ooo1 percenter that figured it out and probably uses Kodi on Raspbian?.

Just use a hdmi input?

[-] humble_pete_digger@lemm.ee 0 points 6 days ago

From what device?
They all spy on u.

Unless u are using Linux, but majority of people just use whatever is installed on tv

[-] FippleStone@aussie.zone 3 points 6 days ago

I do indeed use linux, on an unused laptop hidden away in my tv cabinet. I'm fairly confident it's not spying on me... but you never know. Unfortunately you are correct, most people do just use whatever is on the TV, ignorant to the accompanying issues this causes for both themselves and society at large.
