Study Claims Vizio Simply Ignores ‘Smart’ TV Spying Opt Out Requests
Recently, reports emerged that LG TVs are sniffing around your local network, and even listening to your local environment, even when the TV is purportedly “off.” Some of those voice commands were then stored in plain text and uploaded to the internet. LG’s response? To deny everything. For decades now we’ve documented how while “smart”...

murad.wtf is a status page with no charts: it draws a night sky in plain text where stars are page visits, comets are my posts and an eclipse means a service is down. How it works, where to see it and why it knows nothing about you.
