Yeah, if you have a smart tv, you’re being spied on.

Dear lord what a dumbass. You and everyone else carries around the spy device by choice, all day every day. I’m using it to type this comment. You’re using it to read this comment. The thing has multiple cameras and microphones and is 100% listening to and watching everything we say or do. It’s your phone, if that’s not obvious by now.

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

Paranoia is surely a common mental health issue linked to hate-based ideologies

If it’s a smart TV, she’s right, just not for the reasons she thinks. The TV collects data and uses that for advertising. If it has a microphone or camera, that’s also a potential vector for attack, but I don’t think she’s interesting enough to spy on.

I mean, she could be. But probably so the TV manufacturer can sell her data to advertisers. It’s nefarious, but not the same sort of nefarious she thinks it is. There’s no jews with space lasers inside her TV.

My tv fat shames me. It spied on me all pandemic and then now every time I turn it on it tells me “PerogiBoi, your ass got huuuuge”

I totally get why Marjorie: The Gathering is upset because my tv also talks to me. No one believes me and is all “PerogiBoi I’m concerned for your mental health”.

For serious. Me n Marj, 2 peas in a barge.
