All TVs?

or just all of the TVs you can pop over to Best Buy or Walmart and toss in your car?

Plenty of non-smart displays out there.

And they cost an arm and a leg. Yes, all TVs. You ought to be able to go to Best Buy or Walmart and buy a TV that doesn't spy on you. That should not be controversial.

Nobody said it was.

At least, not in this subthread.

Can you link me to a "non-smart" TV that can be ordered on the Walmart website? Curious cause I didn't think this was a thing any more, and I wasn't able to find one.

You’re making my point.

Take a half-step beyond the easy-reach (Walmart, BB), and they’re not impossible to find (as you made it seem).

Just…unnecessarily difficult.

Maybe not plenty, but Sceptre works great for me.
