Not connecting it to the internet and using HDMI like we’ve been doing for the last 20 years…

This. Everything is this.

My fear is that this will change. We already saw LG load malware via windows when connected. So in theory future devices like Roku and Apple TV could act as a proxy for the tv.
I also fear we will have to install faraday mesh in our walls when these things start arriving with their own internet connection to collect your data and show you ads.

There’s paint for that: ecospaints.net/browse-all/emr-shielding-paint
I’ve heard blackboard paint works as well: smartersurfaces.com/…/black-chalkboard-paint/
I can only imagine how this would totally screw with cell signal and probably generic interference with wanted wireless tech.

As someone who lives in an older style house that totally screws with cell reception “Wi-Fi Calling” makes all the difference
