Now this is serious spying and your Samsung is doing it now - WTF???
This isn’t a conspiracy, this is actually in their user agreements you sign and LG even got caught collecting conversations

“Buried in the fine print in Samsung's own privacy policy, it literally says please be aware that if your spoken words include personal or other sensitive information, that information will be among the data captured. Yes, they told you not to say private stuff near your TV because it's always listening. (Samsungs own agreement is shown in this video and very clearly says they’re always recording everything you say)

LG was caught doing the same, collecting conversations, tracking your viewing habits and sending it back to their servers even when you weren't watching anything. This voice data gets sent to third party analytic firms.

They say it's for better user experience but they don't say who else gets to peek at your private conversations. So one question. Ask yourself why does your TV need to know what you're talking about at dinner? Why would they warn you unless they knew it was going to be abused?“

In 2015, Samsung's privacy policy explicitly stated that their smart TVs could collect voice data, including personal and sensitive information, through voice recognition features, raising concerns about user privacy.

LG was also implicated in similar practices, with reports of collecting conversations and tracking viewing habits, even when the TV was not in use, leading to public and regulatory scrutiny.

The issue of smart devices listening to users without explicit consent has been a recurring concern, with other companies like Amazon and Google facing similar allegations regarding their smart speakers and assistants.

The broader context of this issue ties into the ongoing debate about data privacy and surveillance, exacerbated by advancements in AI and machine learning technologies that rely on vast amounts of data.

Recent regulatory actions, such as the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), have aimed to address these concerns by enforcing stricter data protection and privacy rights for users.

The revelation of such practices has led to increased consumer awareness and demand for transparency and control over personal data, influencing market trends towards privacy-focused technologies.
