As a reminder if you own an LG TV, turn off the sneakily named "Live Plus" thing. This "option" makes your LG TV spy on you, tracking and reporting what you watch based on the image that is shown on the TV.

You need to go to Settings -> All Settings -> General -> System -> Additional Settings to make sure the "Live Plus" option is OFF.

Check it periodically, as it sometimes turns itself back on again after updates.

The enshittification of our world is beyond words.

Saw this post this morning before getting on a plane and saved the tab open so I'd do it first thing when I got home.

Done.

Thanks for the tip. :)

"Check it periodically, as it sometimes turns itself back on again after updates."

Ah, so exactly like Microsoft Windows operating systems behave.

    And iOS / iPadOS for that matter, after every update

      1. go to Settings -> Account -> iCloud -> See All and verify all are Off. 
  2. go to Storage, for each listed select ’Delete Data from iCloud’
