Yes, you can still buy 4K TV's that are not "Smart" (surveillance). They're called "commercial displays" and as a bonus, they're more durable, too.
Prices start at $550 US for a 55-inch Samsung model.

also, I've seen a *lot* of NEC 42" dumb digital signage displays dropping like flies lately...

in reply to fedops 💙💛 • • •@fedops @bhtooefr Some “smart” TVs look for unsecured Wifi to phone home and report your viewing against known content hashes if you don’t give them access.
A better solution is to connect them to your network, but then use their MAC address to assign a fixed IP via DHCP, and block that IP from communicating out of your network via parental controls, or similar.

in reply to fedops 💙💛 • •@fedops 💙💛 Ohhhhhh. I misunderstood what you thought was illegal. I thought you were referring to using MAC filtering to prevent the TV from connecting.
Yeah... that does seem illegal.
