If I had to replace mine now, I'd probably get the 65UH5F-B, a 65" LED, 500 nits, 3840x2160, 60Hz, HDMI 3.0, DP, DVI, RS232, RJ45, IR.
For a tech periodical, this seems to be a stretch for content. Thirty seconds poking around the interwebs led me to this Samsung 65” 4K “digital signage” for $1125: https://www.samsung.com/us/business/displays/4k-uhd/qb-serie... 43, 50, 55, 75, and 85 also available. I assume that these are as good as or better than most people have in their homes (esp. with Vizio), but probably not as good as what home theater enthu…

GDPR requires consent, and no feature is allowed to be removed to coerce you into consent. So at least in the EU, there must be an option to switch off data transmissions.
i would imagine that watch-time of a show is not Personally Identifying Information, and thus do not require GDPR consent.

They don't operate as TVs - no tuners - they are displays for content that is downloaded or streamed.

The premium for a dumb TV screen is about 500-1000$ though. Are you ready to pay that? Because manufacturers will earn more than your 100$ with ads and all other smart features on you if they don't let you buy a dumb screen.
> Because manufacturers will earn more than your 100$ with ads and all other Is there any evidence that this is the case?

Let’s face it, it’s not easy to connect a computer or get some set top box that is probably just as intrusive security-wise as a smart tv.
Sometimes we here on HN don’t think about the normal requirements of civilians.
And I’m saying this having bought a few TV sets recently. Both a dumb 1080p panel and 2 smart 4K tvs.
And yes it was extremely hard to find the dumb set in the store here. Almost don’t even bother looking online - it’s the same problems.
But in the end I’m using a Roku box which is no less intrusive than your typical smart set. So really we can’t win.
Works pretty well and I can switch out streaming sticks easily when they start to suck.
All my friends have smart TVs and aren't very happy with them.
