    I mean, she’s an idiot but she’s not entirely wrong either: Modern TVs try to collect all sorts of data on us, it’s why smart TVs are cheaper than commercial displays with no smart features

      Yeah but she’s clearly not talking about data collection and metrics. Someone accidentally connected to her tv when trying to screencast (most likely explanation based on her given evidence) because she isn’t smart enough to practice basic connected-device privacy best practices.
