Does anyone got any television recommendations for dumb tv’s or other words none smart tv’s? Or even a tv that is smart but the software is open sourced making it privacy friendly?

    You want to wall mount any decent sized TV anyway. My LG didn’t come with a stand either, only a wall mount.

        Several reasons.

        First of all space: a wall mounted TV takes up less space, and this is especially true if it’s a large TV

        Second: safety. A large flat screen is at risk for falling over. Even the smallish (50") plasma I had a while back came with a safety warning that urged you to basically run a piece of rope from a hook at the top of the TV to the wall to ensure it wouldn’t fall on anyone.

        Third: it just looks better.
