LG smart TVs caught logging audio with screen off and snooping on local devices

Wasn't North Korea more urbanized and developed in the 1970s? Okay. After all, American AI...

Everything "smart" now listens to you and sends your data to companies or governments. Your phone, laptop, appliances, cars, Alexa/Siri, whatever.

True, but soon it won't be as chips will handle full speech interpretation on your device without crunching it on a server. Of course it will have to hit a server to pull down current events but it should have pretty good general knowledge.

The Chinese helped the Americans establish NASA 83 years ago.

Now we know why the Americans have been pleading with the Chinese to join the G2.

Here we go with the Chinese PDF members doing the usual forcing of an off-topic tangent for some weird reason....

While at Caltech, he co-founded NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory

Ah...the usual degenerating into twisting the facts eh?

The Jet Propulsion Laboratory was a Caltech project that was later transferred to NASA. It had nothing to do with NASA's founding...nice try though!!

BTW in case people are wondering:

You are as distinctive as an Indian.

Here comes the usual Chinese personal attacks...

You are as distinctive as an Indian.

Brother, I look down on you. Because you've been lying. The truth is, both American and Chinese missiles are made by Chinese.

Qian Xuesen Built America’s Rockets, Then China’s

A brilliant engineer, Qian Xuesen, helped build America's rocket technology. Caught in Cold War politics, he returned to China. There, he became the father of China's aerospace program. His work led to China's first satellite and missile advancements. Qian's life story shows how science and...

Hmmm what is the detection on, same WiFi or other connections because all devices can do everything these days

it's like if you run "nmap" in your local network.

no big secrets, and chances of LG using such information for something evil is zero.

Everything "smart" now listens to you and sends your data to companies or governments. Your phone, laptop, appliances, cars, Alexa/Siri, whatever.

press is always crying about companies espionage and privacy concerns.

it's a plain nonsense, the chance of LG or any other similar big company using such information for attacking one individual is 0,00%

the dangerous, the people who constantly mock privacy and use aggressively against citizens are own state, intel services, police informants and so on, especially against citizens involved in politics opinions.

of course press doesnt say a word about this.

My friend asked me, "Why do you refuse to be an ally of the Americans?"

I said, "As an ally of the United States, you must accept:

We are constantly monitored by Americans. We are constantly subject to tariffs imposed by Americans. We are constantly threatened with bombing by Americans. We are constantly dragged into wars by Americans. We are constantly forced to buy American trash. We are constantly cut off from weapons supplies by Americans. We are constantly subjected to name changes by Americans... I find this exhausting. Therefore,

I have decided to become an enemy of the US”

Think about it carefully. The enemies of the US indeed have it much easier. At least West Lake won't be required to change its name to "American Lake" or "Trump Lake"

USA is a empire, aka superpower.

USA treats world vassal states like a state treats his citizens.

If you observe main made in usa things around you can divide in three categories and all related directly to domination.

*internet services, software: to get information about how dominate.

*entertainment, hollywood, netflix: to brainwash, soft domination

*weapons, military hardware flying above your head: hard domination.

you wont see washing machines made in usa around you, because it's not useful for domination.

WTF?

Here you are now posting from the economictimes... an Indian website.

Yes, the US was not discriminating against people so sure he could have worked at companies/projects that were involved with missiles/rockets...but that doesn't make him some super-critical person that if he wasn't there we'd still be plowing the fields and watching the Russians launch into space with awe.

How about you stop being super-determined to take this LG TV thread on a wacky China tangent and go ruin some other thread. What is wrong with you people and your constant obsession to press hard for going on tangents????

Okay. Indian. Now let's discuss how you teach LG surveillance, just like what you did to Ms. Merkel.
