There was a post I saw a few days ago where a guy removed the entire wifi board from his TV, and it still worked. Then someone said that LG tv's will actually seek out bluetooth conmections, and try to piggyback off the other device's internet connection.

I just can't see the appeal of owning a smart tv.
