It is so difficult to find modern electronics without telemetry and ads. Smartphones, laptops, TVs, home routers, security cameras, cars, game consoles, e-readers, projectors, 3D printers, fitness trackers, speakers, and even some printers. Why can’t customers be free from this data collection and advertising? It’s not that we don’t care about it. There simply aren’t many alternatives, and the few that do exist are either more expensive or offer fewer features. Seriously, we need a list of products we can buy without worrying about telemetry or advertising.
The following list is updated at https://lemmy.ml/post/52706206
- Framework Laptop
- Anything else that doesn’t come with ads and telemetry built in?
Most gaming monitors, computer monitors, video projectors, and commercial displays are spyware-free alternatives to smart TVs.
Last time I checked, there were also a few brands that still made dumb TVs, but it has been a few years since I looked.
Could you recommend a video projectors without telemetry or ads?
