Controversial, but same with your television.
you guys have anything other than TV over IP?
I wouldn't say that's controversial, but it's really just a matter of choosing which platform you think will enshittify slowest.
Smart TV with no Internet connection + streaming box with Internet connection. Every TV behaves the same way if they all use the same streaming boxes. If a streaming box provider steps out of line, you switch to another vendor or use a media PC.
TVs are forced to just be TVs, to display in the quality you bought them for. Their totally innocent array of hi-sensitivity Big Brother microphones have nowhere to transmit every sound in your living room, etc.
When they eventually start making it illegal or impossible to do that, I'll just wait for my last TV to die and then I don't know what. Maybe take up shuffleboard?
You mean like old school non gamified shuffleboard right? Because right now for a small investment you can play shuffleboard against anyone in the world. Also has instagram plugins, and an AI to encourage or train you.

Yes, just physical objects with no electricity involved, outside in the fresh air.
Sceptre sells non-smart TV still. Unfortunately, only available @ Walmart & Amazon. Really a lesser of two evils situation. Support union-busting or support planned obsolescence and spyware.
