I don't have a TV, but doesn't a smart TV require internet access? Why not just... not give it internet access? Or do they come with their own mobile data plans now meaning you can't even turn off the internet access?

They continually try to get ob the Internet, it's basically malware at this point. The on board SoC is also usually comically underpowered so the menus stutter.
I never needed a TV, but now I for sure am not getting one.

IDK why people are downvoting you, I am sure you're not alone with that sentiment.
A lot of TVs are requiring an account login before being able to use it.
OK, that's really fucked. What the hell? Wait a moment... that means they could turn the use of the TV into a subscription at any time! That's crazy...
