I would love the child of a Surfacebook with a Framework laptop; or A bare keyboard attached to a screen, that I could plug my phone (possibly running Phosh) and use it as a hardware for a laptop experience

      Visio penalizes you for not giving it Internet access by taking extra long to turn on while it vainly tries to phone home. There's no way to turn off the "feature".

      Why is it not illegal for manufacturers to cripple hardware if you don't let them invade your privacy?

      Are there any alternate firmware sources for TVs that remove the smart features?
