An investigation by Gamers Nexus found LG smart TVs sweep local networks to map phones and nearby devices. Tests also showed the sets can capture microphone audio with the screen off — they then upload data once reconnected to the internet.
When the team disconnected the TV from Ethernet, the set continued saving voice input locally and uploaded the stored files once network access was restored.

I see their problem
i got my LG TV for free (long story) It’s never been connected to the internet.
It runs off an adb modified Nvidia Shield Pro and 80% of its work is with Kodi, 20% with local FTA apps.
