I was specifically talking about what the original commenter said.

Dumb TVs are already a thing as mentioned elsewhere. Commercial Displays cost more but you can beat someone to death with them and they'll still work.
I'm with you on hoping for more options. I'd hate for my next TV purchase (hopefully years from now) to be forced online under the guise of firmware updates to steal my viewing habits.
We used to put warm beer, ice, and salt in a cooler to cool the beer down quickly on Friday after work. It worked great for that.
Order them well done, or if that's too much you can order light-well.
No hate from me but two is almost too many people for me. I love my SO, I just have a really hard time being around anyone for any length of time. Different strokes for different folks.
This is news to me. I was too cool for everything at the time and still enjoyed it.
Same. I played it on stadia and it was pretty stable. When I went to that other site to see what people were saying I was absolutely shocked at the amount of bugs and hate it was getting.

If you don't want kids to have participation trophies don't give them participation trophies. You didn't go out and buy yourself a trophy for everything, did you?
How many more times? If a regular TV costs $100 then they're making $20k plus marketing data. The PrivaTV would need nearly a $7000 markup for the same return.
Obviously these are made up numbers for illustration. I think that for big manufacturers it's not worth it for the return and amount of effort they would need to spend. Maybe a small manufacturer could do it. Maybe that would spur the big guys to buy them out and take it over once the hard work is done.
I think they know it, I just don't think they care. It's a niche market. On top of that, they'd have to convince the people in that market to trust them.
If they can get a 10-20% return on 10,000 Smart TVs, why waste the effort on properly developing and supporting 3 PrivaTVs (patent pending, exclusions apply, see your local drunk for details)?
I could be wrong, I just don't think the market is large enough that they'd be willing to throw manpower at it.
Sadly no one would find it because of SEO.
I killed an old exchange server with an auto reply to a coworker who had an auto reply to me.
Those were the good old days.
