When the team disconnected the TV from Ethernet, the set continued saving voice input locally and uploaded the stored files once network access was restored.

How is this not already a national security threat everywhere?

    once network access was restored.

    I see their problem

    i got my LG TV for free (long story) It's never been connected to the internet.

    It runs off an adb modified Nvidia Shield Pro and 80% of its work is with Kodi, 20% with local FTA apps.
