I was about to buy a TCL 55inch but have stopped to consider whether this finding will change my mind. Would this turn anyone off buying a TCL tv or are the recommendations in the last section enough to protect our information (strong wifi password, restricting devices from connecting to the internet etc)?
Sounds like an easy TV to mod. The firewall on the router will stop external parties from accessing the TV.
