I'm happy to keep my dumb 45' TV for as long as I can. Speaking of which, is it still possible to buy a large diagonal dumb TV these days? like 65' or 75'

I recently learned that some Google TVs have a “Basic Mode” that removes all the smart crud. https://www.androidcentral.com/new-google-tv-feature-will-le...

I haven’t had a chance to look into it further so I don’t know if it’s any good, but it might be worth looking into. (I’m also curious if anyone here has experience with it)

Every TV is just a dumb panel if you don't give it an IP address.

It's only a matter of time before TVs come come with cellular modems, with the network cost paid for by splitting the surveillance dollars with the cell company.

Just don't plug it
