There is no AI. That was the first mistake. Thinking that there is.

Not in the US. We have a captive market that keeps us from ever seeing one.

Shun it and have a population of people who can solve their own problems. Use it and gain a population that give of even basic decision making skills.

Except there is no precedent for that. Liability/malpractice insurance has been around for quite a while and there would be very little chance that law enforcement/justice could argue it wasn’t ‘fair’.

The solution is to require all law enforcement and justice employees to have liability insurance similar to malpractice insurance. After a couple of serious mistakes they wont be able to get insurance and therefore will no longer endanger the public.

Its never gonna phone home. If I was really worried about it I would take the TV apart and locate the mic. Put a switch between it or just cut it.

Even better. Put the LG on a untrusted vlan that only whitelists public IP access.

Take a look at OPNsense which is open source or pfSense which is more commercial but still has a community version. Good documentation and will run on really old hardware as long as you have two Ethernet ports in the computer. Until last year my router was a 2007 dual core dell PC. I upgraded to a fifth generation I5.

I run the licensed version of pfSense on all the routers in my org. I have full tunnels between each location along with full blocking of malicious sites including all adult content. It may look complicated but if you want to learn how netowrking works you can do a lot worse.

Just like that price war between american cars and all those Chinese ones they let be imported. The whole point of import bans in the US is to prevent a true free market.

I have done that. Years ago. Its been over ten since I have went to a best buy. Got asked to leave one time because I talked a couple out of a new PC. They kept telling the sales weenie it was less than a year old and this guy was trying to convince them it was already out of date. I just laughed and left
