Hacker reverse engineers his Samsung TV and finds on-device AI listening for your dog and baby, watching what you watch, and borrowing your soundbar's mic if the TV doesn't have one. Then OpenAI banned him for reverse-engineering it.

Yeah, unless it pulls an LG and automatically connects to any network it can find to report back on you anyway.

    At this point I’ll force the people who I live with to buy a commercial display. Like I did for my room. The Samsung tv is so old anyway that it barely works and the apps that it can run just don’t work anymore. I’m not that worried as it doesn’t even have a microphone or a content recognition system in it anyway. I should probably end up rooting it to see what it could do though.
