I’ve never owned a TV before but recently purchased a Samsung TV.

In terms of privacy, is it recommended I use its internal OS to log into things like Netflix or Disney+, or is it better to use a Chromecast for those things?

I figured if I use a Chromecast I can simply not connect my TV to the Internet at all. Of course, it does mean I’ll be using a Google product.

And what privacy related issues am I opening myself up to in the first place? What kinds of things do TVs and Chromecasts track?

Anything else I should be considering?
