Its an old LG, but given the recent light on the lengths they’ll go to spy on us, I figured this guy was better off without any ability to even connect wirelessly. Don’t know if the Ethernet still works but I plan on keeping my TVs as dumb as possible, HDMI only.

If you’re wondering how to open lg TVs you just have to remove all the screws then start pulling open at the bottom and open the clips going up. With the TV face down on a soft surface just keep pulling on the back case from the bottom, it’ll take some effort to pop open. The top edge folds open more like a hidge than clips.

      Well, ultimatelly it’s a “how much do I care about being surveilled in the comfort of my own home and risk having my network hacked” vs “how much enjoyment do I derive from a a big fat consumer TV”.

      Personally “how much enjoyment do I derive from a a big fat consumer TV” is such a low value for me that most other things are more important for me, but I can understand that it’s not the same for others.
