An investigation by Gamers Nexus found LG smart TVs sweep local networks to map phones and nearby devices. Tests also showed the sets can capture microphone audio with the screen off — they then upload data once reconnected to the internet.

Liberalism will always be corrupted by capitalism at the end of the the day. Maybe some systems last a decade or two longer, but it’s all bound to fall.

    IMHO Liberalism was manufactured by Capitalism as a left-sounding form of politics to allow mainstream parties which were genuinelly leftwing to move Right in Economic, Quality Of Life and even broad Equality whislt still appearing to be left-wing due to their pro-liberty posture on Moral and Social subjects.

    I say this because I have yet to see any form of Liberalism in mainstream politics, ever, anywhere, which sought to maximize people's freedom to access limitied or constrained resources which are required merelly to live, such as Land (which Land Ownership goes against), so I don't think that at least in Politics there was ever any genuine Liberalism for Capitalism to corrupt.
