The truth for Samsung is that they are taking privacy very seriously for customers when it comes to Smart TVs but what about the Android services and apps they have made? The recent concern for the customers was that the privacy was compromised when watching something on Samsung Smart TV which wasn't the first time things happened like that. The previous time was that LG Smart TVs did the same privacy violation stuffs and that LG was aware of the issue. It's the same for Samsung in which there will be a patch that will fix the privacy violation issues as well as the annoyance of the ad-appearances in every third-party apps and videos.
So, did they screw up or what before they got aware of these issues? And even then, there was another previous news indicating that regardless of the brands, the Smart TVs are eyeing on you and your actions and I don't know if this issue is completely fixed for LG and Samsung Smart TVs. The more sensitive ones are probably the Android-based Smart TVs and Set Top Boxes as we still can know that there are some remaining security flaws out there.
