I don’t get why people reflexively suggest streaming boxes. A standalone Roku, Onn or FireTV is gonna spy on you just as much as any of these things. Apple TV is probably the best of a bad bunch (esp. since Nvidia enshittified the Shield TV). There’s options like running the Shield with an alternate launcher or putting a ROM on the Fire stick or running A Linux STB but none of those are particularly accessible to the non-tech set.
hypothetically the box doesn’t see everything else you do with the TV, but that’s a minimal reduction in footprint.
Thank you. “I refuse to send my data to my tv company! Here, Apple, you take it instead.”
