GN have a whole series they're building up that starts with a massive investigation into LG's spyware network built into things like their televisions and moves into other areas such as the Flock (et al) surveillance networks. Wendell from Level One Tech is involved, too.
Here's the fundraiser and preview:

This is the big LG television surveillance documentary story GN have been working on for a couple of months, and that they previewed a few days ago.
The complete pervasiveness of spying upon not just you and what you watch but _every person and every device around every set_ is genuinely staggering. And it gets worse if you use their apps, particularly the LG TV "network":

Having an old set DOES NOT HELP YOU; they've been adding these spying functions in firmware updates.
So DO NOT BUY ANYTHING LG. Certainly not anything "smart."
