This long-form series of special reports, investigations, and shorter format feature updates goes deep with the privacy violations and overreach of modern consumer electronics, including Smart TVs and other devices. We'll explore LG's WebOS, LG Smart TV vulnerabilities and exploits, first-party ACR (automated content recognition) behaviors, and other concerns. Alongside that, we'll dive deeper into ALPRs and Flock cameras as we fight their rollout in at least one small town. We're also digging deep into the data exchange practices between large AI companies, looking into how data sucked into data centers can be exploited for training and profit.

I hate his thumbnails and his team really needs to better themselves on that.

That said, the effort and quality of his investigations are something else.

You heard of this? https://dearrow.ajay.app/ I am not affiliated. You just reminded me, I share the same hate.

Was gonna say, I haven't seen YouTube thumbnails in years. It just grabs a frame from the video, the way it used to work.

This is unfortunately the state of modern YouTubing. Clickbait or fail.
