NEVER buy an internet-connectable appliance!!

Certainly never connect any internet-connectable appliance to the actual internet!!

Certainly never provide any personal information to any internet-connectable appliance that is on the actual internet!!

You are an idiot if you violate any of these. Just grow a spine and don't do stupid things that are obviously dangerous or invasive.

Can you find me a OLED 4K HDR TV that’s sold in Australia at a consumer level that has no internet connectability?

I’ve been searching for months, I’m yet to find out. The market has varied enough that I can’t see a way to avoid it and still have a TV that supports modern imagery enhancements and standards.

I mean, the tweets are funny, but the guy gave the fridge his email address at a time, no? So what was the expectation?
