CRTs did break. And they did suffer from burning.
Just buy a non-smart modern TV, you won’t need a replacement and it won’t connect to the internet.
Please tell me where I can get a modern high-res TV that is NOT smart. I have tried but cannot find them anywhere
Just buy a tv, then don’t connect it to anything. But likely that you are going to connect something smart to it, so it doesn’t matter.
It is possible to put it in a VLAN that is unable to talk to the internet. This is fine, but I wish I could just get a TV that doesn’t have this tracking functionality to begin with.
Dumb tv’s are still a thing but they are priced insanely high
Crt tvs broke all the time.
Rose tinted glasses.
Yep. In fact I just met an 80 year old guy today that spent his career repairing tvs. Sure were a lot of tv repair men and shops for tvs that never broke.
