Samsung’s privacy policy regarding Smart TV technology warns that its television sets ‘listen’ to every word of the customer and advises users not to talk about personal or confidential information near their television sets.
Please note that if your words include personal or confidential information, that information will be among the captured data and will be transmitted to a third party through the Voice Recognition function “, says the privacy policy of the company on their smart TVs.
“Although Samsung does not record its pronounced words, it can collect associated texts and other data,” explains the company, which clarifies that it will use it “to be able to evaluate the performance of the function and improve it.”
In short, owners of Samsung’s ‘Smart TV’ watch what they say in their own homes.(Taken from RT)
