Surprise surprise... By default you're opted-in. I dunno probably, I didn't read the article.
It's opt in, but tge article explains that it's nestled among a bunch of eulas that you have to click through, so unless you obsessively check which checkboxes don't have to be checked, you're going to find yourself opted in.
That is called opt-out though.
I didn't read it to but probably mandatory otherwise you can not use the tv
You don't have to opt in to anything. Even if you use the tv as a dumb disply with hdmi only it still spies on you.
