    On my PC monitor I pasted a piece of foil over the camera.

    They're 3 years old those vids. They'll have moved on a long way since then

    Luckily my TV doesn't have that stupid smart remote with voice recognition to change channels or a camera to sit there looking a nob gesturing to. Or the stupid curve, or 3D.

    Hmmmm.... Maybe my TV is not so smart afterall

    My TV is smart. Smarter than me at any rate. I can't work out half the bloody functions and it sits there and mocks me every time I want to change channels.

    1984 Telescreen in every house? Why wouldn't they use them?

    Will allow for very precise marketing first of all.
    "But we have no money for a holiday on the costa this year you stupid bitch"
    Beep beep beep sms "You have been approved for a Holiday Loan"
    "See you daft bastard, I can get a loan to pay for it"

    For "investigating"
    "You gotta watch this Kamal, this is the bomb" watching some mtv shite
    Kamal and Bomb - click, investigator start live feed surveillance. Rev up the plane for extraordinary rendition, and a jump suite for Gitmo that obomba closed 8 years ago.

    and it will be used creepily by the IT boys like harry who don't otherwise get to see women in real life
    "I know she will love me if I find out everything about her by watching her in her house"... shuffle shuffle wank wank.

    .. and so on.

    Would be funny if one day it started speaking to you "Oh come on Ant, it's not that hard, why don't you ever read a manual rather than pretending that just because you were born with a penis and balls, manual's don't apply to you."

    Don't have a smart tv or smart anything else for that matter.

    Although I do have a desk fan that seems to scan the room constantly from left to right. Just can't figure out what it's looking for.

    If only TD would update the site software. The mods could watch Piwiannoy masturbating furiously as he pastes the latest Condell repeat with one finger.

    Oh wait ...
