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.

Its never gonna phone home. If I was really worried about it I would take the TV apart and locate the mic. Put a switch between it or just cut it.
It will try to find any unsecured WiFi
Then I’ll give it one. One that is null routed.
Truth is I’m not going to have a ‘smart tv’
I’m just gonna pay more.
