Specs look great but do be aware of the terrible spyware practices LG has started with their monitors: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q...bM&t=1479s

Is this even a "smart" display? I think they need an internet connection to be used as spyware.

Like the linked video says, there was an issue with distributing stuff through Windows Update as part of the driver package.

Aside the stupid move that lg did, how is the monitor? I heard it's the 4th Gen oled type and it's supposed to be good, but is it?

FYI, you can disable all of that from happening, but I understand the whole line of trust is broken for some people. But at these prices that they're dropping to it really becomes a matter of "what's my privacy worth"

This is the first thing I think of every time I see LG displays of any kind now.

And for those of you who didn't click on the link, monitors is listed right in the title of the video so yes monitors...

It's actually pretty nefarious what they're doing. I want to say it goes through Windows updates once it detects the monitor if I remember correctly.

As the other poster said, it looks like you can block it now but still....

I'm not sure if I have seen any kind of follow-up. Other than not accepting, how would one disable on a TV?

When they were talking about TVs, if I remember correctly didn't Gamers Nexus go into some of the potential problems with the listening on the TVs, for instance whether or not you had to legally warn everyone who went into your house and I think there was something about listening to children and how they couldn't legally consent, as well.
