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.
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)
