Me, I’m never going to hook my TV up to the internet. It would be like putting a spy in my house.
The file system on my tv won’t reveal much. But does that allow them to see everything on the home network?
I haven’t had my TV on for 5 years and haven’t missed it a bit. Now if Free Republic and some of my other favorite sites were to go down. . .that’s another story.
They're having fun in China and nobody's wearing masks. They actually teach their kids stuff in school. And in China, corrupt politicians and business leaders are lined up against a wall and shot.
Why does it matter if anyone, including the Chinese government, can look at the file system of my TV?
What national secrets are stored on my TV?
And, if they want to see what I have been watching it will not help them steal military or industrial secrets.
Should one be concerned if one uses Google net or Google mesh for in-home wireless internet?

FWIW, most TCL TV’s that run on Android are marketed and sold outside the USA, though there are a few lower end models sold here. TCL TVs in the USA are mostly based on the ROKU platform.
