It is good advice, but tell that to the old people that want to watch YouTube on a big screen lol. And they don't have another device.
Why do you have a big screen if you don't watch anything on it? Am I old if I don't want to kill my neck holding an anxiety rectangle in front of my nose?
Big screen with the audio loud as it can be, lol. I service houses, I seen it countless of times.
Privacy or not? That's the question.
Being unknowingly spied on, yes, it is about privacy. A reason why I posted.
Unless you disconnect it from the internet it won't do any good.
Obviously that would help to be completely offline. A side note-there are city security cameras right outside my house. It makes you wonder about tech that possibly could see through walls. You won't be able to hide at all soon. There will be cameras everywhere you look. Especially in the cities.
