Personnel
gollark: Because the built-in thing is insecure and bad.
gollark: Meanwhile, an external box like an RPi (£50 or so including basic accessories, it's fine) will get support for... probably 10 years or so? And you can swap it separately. And you can be sure of exactly what's running on there. And it has the same security as a standard computery device, i.e. not great but workable.
gollark: *Some* apparently randomly connect to unsecured wireless networks if available.
gollark: Originally, yes, they were made for live TV.
gollark: Many do some kind of automatic content recognition thing on the stuff on their screen.
