I bought a commercial digital signage TV. No Roku/Chromecast/whatever, but the damn thing STILL has Ethernet and Wi-Fi and nagged me about setting it up on the internet. I'm only buying computer monitors from here on out.

My current tv is a 42” I got in 2012. I would love to upgrade to a bigger one, but I don’t wanna get a lame smart tv.

So this is why my TV walked into the bathroom while I was dropping a deuce. 🤔
Of course they are without any data privacy laws companies are going to collect and then sell as much of your personal data that they can get away with.
“CTV” is a new term that I wasn’t familiar with.
It's also slightly confusing because CTV is a major TV station in Canada. I've never heard CTV to mean Connected TV.

What would you guys recommend for a dumb TV with a good quality panel in the 65-75" range that's a available to buy in the EU? My intention is to hook it up to my own device (probably a mini PC running some Linux distro with Kodi and some other stuff).
