Is my smart TV tracking what I watch?
Reviewed answer
Many smart TVs collect viewing and usage data; review the privacy controls.
- Review your TV's privacy settings and disable viewing-data collection or content recognition where offered.
- Turn off unused microphones, voice features, and personalized advertising options.
- Keep the TV updated. If you do not need its online features, consider disconnecting its internet connection.
