Roku’s Ultimatum: Surrender Jury Trial Rights or Lose Access to Your TVs
(programming.dev)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
What I did. I have two smart TVs.
Fuckers have never once been online. You can even go the extra mile and open them up and unplug the wifi antenna (or just remove the wifi card if its slotted and not integrated into the mainboard)
I brought mine online long enough to do an initial firmware update. That was it. I may bring it online long enough to do another one, but I'm going to google first to be sure they haven't done something like Roku here without my having heard about it.
I wouldnt even do that unless there is an actual issue you are having that can only be fixed with a firmware update.
