What? Just don't connect it to the internet.

Unless this TV doesn't allow that?

Agree with your point, there is little choice.

I recall reading that there was a place to purchase bezel-less, stripped down TVs w/o the smarts, that are basically monitors without being the quality of monitors so they are cheap, and used for creating giant wall displays.



All modern hdmi cables support ethernet so unless the device in the other end of the cable is an older one the TV could still get internet.

The fix is better laws. The exact same TV in Nordic version have an option to turn ads on (it defaults to off).


I had no idea ethernet over HDMI existed. That is awful. Thanks for letting me know. :(
