I agree with that, but there's always going to be exceptions like 'smart' TVs. I have a Roku-based one, and I accept that whatever service (Disney/Hulu/etc.) I connect to can track what I do on their app, but I don't consent to Roku themselves tracking every click I make, app I'm using, or setting I change. Plenty of people have pointed out this traffic to Roku on their support forums, and AFAIK, they've never come clean as to what, exactly, they track.

Just because I let someone sleep on my couch doesn't mean I accept that they sneak into my bathroom and watch me shower.
