I'll keep my dumb TVs and monitors over a ~~spy~~smart tv anytime. Can't wait for them to roll out pay-to-use-tv next.

Especially be sure to avoid anything with ACR (automatic content recognition). If it detects you're watching content from an unapproved source, it will bug you to watch it on that approved source such as a streaming service. It's just a software update, or a congress bill away from reporting anyone who watches pirated content on their TV. So just beware.
