IoT Smart crap!!!!
When I bought my new TV a few months ago, I asked the Salesman about its operation without being connected to the Mothership/Internet.
He smiled and said
"I'm being asked that a lot these days".
He gently directed me away from the Samsung models to a Sony.
So far it hasn't demanded to be connected so that it can phone home.
It appears that the world of IoT is much like the majority of mobile phones. i.e. many, many millions sold and a few months later all support and upgrades stop so the users are left with all the security problems until the phone stops working/put in a drawer and forgotten.
