Like, even installing the recorder itself - wrapped in toilet paper, no less! - was amateurish. And that is putting it generously, and exceedingly kindly.
A page could have been taken from the actions of ATM card skimmers. Take a high-res image of that I/O panel, then duplicate it with all of the expected ports using a 3D printer to build an “extension” that seamlessly covers the existing TV ports. One USB port off of the TV leads to the recording device that remains hidden behind the extension, the others go to a USB hub that services the expected ports on the extension. Buy the same model of TV so that the extension can be tailored to be extremely difficult to recognize as something added/separate, and practice installing it so that it can be attached quickly and with great precision.
When done right, any average person looking at the back of the TV would be very hard pressed to see anything wrong with the I/O ports.
Some random from an Arab nation tried to hack OpenAI... ARREST HIM.
