Its an old LG, but given the recent light on the lengths they'll go to spy on us, I figured this guy was better off without any ability to even connect wirelessly. Don't know if the Ethernet still works but I plan on keeping my TVs as dumb as possible, HDMI only.

If you're wondering how to open lg TVs you just have to remove all the screws then start pulling open at the bottom and open the clips going up. With the TV face down on a soft surface just keep pulling on the back case from the bottom, it'll take some effort to pop open. The top edge folds open more like a hidge than clips.

Imagine the power to use any TV in any home as a spy device, and remote hack it. Because I'm sure that won't be abused. It's probably fine. We shouldn't worry about it. Plus the whole ownership, we own nothing, they claim they still own the glass, on top of the copyright ownership of the software. That's pretty all encompassing. That means you're essentially renting your TV. It's a push for reducing and eroding consumer rights. So we own nothing.
