Or just delete Facebook.

Why would I do that?

Should I get rid of my TV, too? Japanese telly is mostly horrendous.

How about I cancel Netflix and Hulu while I'm at it? There's a boatload of crap on both those services(and don't get me started on Amazon Prime Video, with its random 'How To Draw Spider-Man' videos) but I never see it because I watch stuff I want to watch.

[Dogg Thang]

Yep. Do it. Cancel everything. You will never need to draw Spider-Man.

Mental the past year, have not experienced anything in the way of deaths or family illnesses in family since i was about 9 (over 30 years ago) and past year Grandad/Grandma/Great Uncle/ and Two aunties all died from cancer and my Dad is currently being treated for it.

Grandad and Great uncle did have a good innings though 94 and 96 but both Aunties were only in their sixties, Only good news is with my dad it is a small spot on the lung with it nowhere else (he did have part of a lung removed few years ago due to cancer but got the all clear). but upcoming 6 weeks of treatment is probably going to be tough

Facebook is ****.

Of course not, as your telly isn't probably trying to track and or get your data from anything you do on the internet.

Actually modern TVs do do that. It subsidises their prices.

Believe so, but not if you don't let them connect to the internet.

Yup just keep your tv off the net (use another device for streaming). From what I’ve read smart TVs are the biggest security threat around as they have basically zero protection.

Some have cameras, too!

My dad’s John Lewis(LG) telly has a camera, but you have to flick it up.

The other device will be tracking you too.
