all smart tvs do this! they've been doing it for a decade at this point! I've been saying never to connect your tv to your internet for the past decade because of this stupid shit that's only coming out now.

never connect your tv to your internet or network. you want to watch netflix? don't use your tv, use an appletv or nvidia shield device!
