[RealBlackStuff]

Owners of Vizio TVs won't be too happy to know that they have been spied on for years!
Switch it OFF.

$2.2 million is like pennies for a company like Vizio. Make it $50 million minimum and maybe companies will actually think twice.

And once again, the late great George Orwell had it right, 70 years ago...

You dont have to switch it off... just use it with a HDMI source and you should be fine.

Funny thing is Vizio is owned by a company that does the LeECO LeTV phones that are also riddled with malware spyware adware.
