Question 1

Was hat Gamers Nexus bei LG-Smart-TVs gefunden?

Accepted Answer

The team found LG sets scanning the entire home Wi-Fi network to map phones, laptops, and smart devices, and capturing microphone audio while the screen appeared off, with the recordings uploaded once the TV reconnected to the internet.

Question 2

Hat die Datenschutzvereinbarung von LG in Texas das Tracking gestoppt?

Accepted Answer

No. LG settled with Texas regulators in May 2026, agreeing to stop collecting viewing data without informed consent, but the investigation ran four months later and found the collection still active out of the box.

Question 3

Was empfehlen die Forscher LG-Besitzern zu tun?

Accepted Answer

They recommend disconnecting LG TVs from the internet entirely and using an external streaming device instead, because the sets use broad network listeners and data sweeps by default.
