Episode Details

A YouTube channel called Gamers Nexus recently took a deep dive into how much data LG collects from its TVs about your viewing habits and even ambient conversations in the room. This has sparked a fierce debate about privacy and exactly how LG and other TV and so-called "smart" device manufacturers use the data they collect. Scott Wilkinson talks about the issue and the best ways for you to limit the amount of data that corporations collect from you.
