      I agree with the sentiment… sadly it’s almost getting to the point where if you stuck to your guns on that one, you may not find a TV you could buy

        You can 100% still buy them. They’re just prohibitively expensive for the average person. Business/commercial TV displays don’t require Internet connection. They’re often used for things like digital signage, corporate meeting rooms, etc… But they’re going to be like 2-3x the cost of a consumer-level TV. Because the price of modern consumer-level TVs is heavily subsidized by the fact that the company is planning on selling your data.

        Maybe we should Boycott TV’$ altogether? We have the internet, we have local free AI models, we have the ability to code and draw.
