You know that many TVs these days have deals with companies like Comcast to allow them to join the open wifi networks they don't allow you to not broadcast from your home, right?
Amazon Sidewalk is an example of an opt-out long-range cross-household device mesh/relay network using Bluetooth and LoRa to exfiltrate surveillance data.
They are consumers and have no idea
Tvs do not connect to amazon side walk to serve you ads ( was that your argument)?
My point was mainly about exfiltrating surveillance data from devices that weren't explicitly given a network connection. Being served ads is a secondary concern.
Tvs aren’t doing that (unless you meant from the wifi you gave it to serve you ads)
Sure, if you discount the glaring wide open loophole your argument is perfectly airtight.
