Smart TV opt-out telemetry is malicious.


Edited to clarify what I mean.


Thanks for giving my glib comment the credibility it didn't deserve.

Less flippantly, I'm worried it will be sooner rather than later that someone figures out how to route the telemetry and ads over the same TLS endpoint as the bona fide services. At that point it's game over, and I don't think it needs much "sophistication". Just a different path on the same HTTPS endpoint...
