IoT privacy compliance development.
Samsung will revise ACR data practices after legal action by the Texas Attorney General.

Key elements:
• Real-time viewing habit collection under scrutiny
• Enhanced disclosure & consent flow promised
• Emphasis on consumer transparency
• Broader regulatory pressure on smart device telemetry

ACR data monetization highlights a persistent tension:
Device intelligence vs user autonomy
Advertising revenue vs explicit consent
Convenience vs continuous telemetry
