  • I feel I must clarify. I value my privacy, and my money. I prefer to disconnect it from the internet immediately, but if the vendor put a piece of code that measures offline time and then disables critical HDMI input functionality - it is a different story entirely.

    What if after X months of offline functionality - I have to connect it again because of “You must connect to the internet to continue using this TV”

    What if being offline for a very long duration of time - means that when connecting it again - the firmware update bricks my TV?

    I know the instabilities that occurr when updating after a very long time of being offline.

    I’m unsure about my specific model - but it is an LG WebOS OLED 48"
