"You should turn off ❌#ACR on your TV right now, your smart TV comes with privacy risks"

✅THANKS for the good info and how to turn off #automaticcontentrecognition

But what if you are viewing video files, on a USB stick from friends or downloaded?

⭕Does ACR collect data on everything you watch? Maybe just unplug the LAN or turn off the TV wifi?

Obviously your TV device "knows" every show you watch. Problematic is a collection and sharing of these #personaldata without users’ knowledge or #consent.
User #profiling generates detailed information of the behaviour, preferences, and characteristics of individual #users, perfectly suited for targeted marketing and influencing, for instance via #automaticcontentrecognition (ACR).
You can’t stop all the data collection, but you can reduce the snooping: https://www.consumerreports.org/electronics/privacy/how-to-turn-off-smart-tv-snooping-features-a4840102036
