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.
They can connect to neighboring LG TVs and open WiFi networks in your area without explicit approval from you. I don’t know about LG in particular, but there have definetly been TVs that do that.
Yeesh! Creative
Yeah, I’m not even that creative and I’d have them talk to printers with open wifis at least. I’m sure someone smarter and eviler than me has devoted real brain power to this
