"CES Conclusion: All collected data" (Link: Google Translated) - (Link: Source)

Translation: Everything shown at CES 2014 was designed to collect user data, and store it somewhere permanently.

True fact: Only LG smart TVs spy on you, even after you tell them to stop it

Viewing data -- including viewing duration, real-time tracking of the selected channel, and the names of all files stored on connected USB drives and network shares -- "is collected as part of the Smart TV platform to deliver more relevant advertisements and to offer recommendations to viewers based on what other LG Smart TV owners are watching"...

Okay, so LG admits to being a baby big brother, but nothing in the article suggests that LG will actually stop collecting user data. ....sigh

I think I'm gonna read 1984 again and then watch all the Max Headroom reruns for good measure...

I told George Orwell to put the book 30 years later.
