An investigation by Gamers Nexus found LG smart TVs sweep local networks to map phones and nearby devices. Tests also showed the sets can capture microphone audio with the screen off — they then upload data once reconnected to the internet.

        Thanks. I don’t think my TV is phoning home at all right now. It’s certainly not connected to the internet, but then again, I haven’t run wireshark to be certain.
