    You dont even need to connect it yourself. It can use any open Wifi in range as gamersnexus has shown. It is WAY worse than people think.

      And partner networks. Like in Canada there is/was “Shaw Go WiFi” where any shaw customer could connect and get internet access. If a tv brand partnered with them, all their shit could connect to those instead.

        yaaaaay. they put partner networks all over town so there’d be free wifi everywhere during lockdowns. knew they’d find a way to leverage it.
