Your smart TV is trivial to hack and leaks your personal information like crazy unless you disable all its useful features

Consumer Reports dragged a bunch of its top-rated smart TVs back into its labs to re-evaluate them, this time checking them for hard-to-evaluate information security risks and defects, which are not normally factored into its ratings. But Consumer Union, the organization that publishes Consumer Reports, is building out its information security capacity, working with partner orgs to evaluate and expose the security risks and collateral damage from bad information security design and policy.
