Smart TVs are (still) dumb. Don't connect any device to the Internet without a very good reason. My TV hasn't been connected to the net for years.https://t.co/1T0j4poUSx

First: Duh

Second: If any of you have a "Connected" TV, the last thing you want to do is actually connect it to the Internet.

Third: If a monitor REQUIRES you to connect it to the Internet for basic functionality, it's broken and you shouldn't buy it.https://t.co/ZzufSaC8r5
