yes, not to the extreme of smartphones tables and laptops (since all of them are more or less capable of running on linux) but smart tv for me fall into the same category as these "smart home" aka mass surveillance devices, especially because it has been proven that they have been used for surveillance.

I agree with laptops but I’d say smartphones are worse because they are always on, always tracking your location (the smartphone via its location service and your cell carrier). I’d say smartphones have an even worse track record because of how they manage to circumvent location service restrictions (through your WiFi SSID, cellular triangulation) as well as asking for almost all of the permissions you have available.
