2025 Samsung TVs can monitor your pets and family with inbuilt camera

Loudram

Just a sinner saved by grace.
I have a Samsung TV but not one that does this, thankfully. Neither of my TV's have a camera and if they did, there would be a piece of tape over the camera.

The Pet and Family Care feature leverages the TV’s camera and microphone to detect unusual behaviour, such as falls and break-ins, and notify you about it on your smartphone. Samsung says that you can also have this feature recognise situations and adjust settings of smart home devices accordingly. For example, you can setup it up to dim the lights when you sleeping turn up the brightness when you wake up.

Our newest TV is a SONY not quite a 50"er and it's maybe 4 years old and it has no camera but does have microphone, but they had SONY's in stock that did, I told the sales rep we didn't want to be spied on. The TV occasionally prompts us to connect our smart phones and or turn on microphone so you can tell tv change channel or volume or whatever, we never turned that part of the tv on, and we don't have smart phones, so our tv is probably reallly bored in our house hahaha.
