SAMSUNG already introduced smart TV to the technology world which is so smart now that it is able to listen your side talks. We can say third person is listening your talks with the help of Samsung smart TV. Just imagine you are with your family or with your friends watching television and without your knowledge your smart TV is listening your personal talks and sends them to the third parties.
On this, Samsung said “we employ high security on our smart TVs which includes data encryption, secure consumers’ personal data. We have install voice recognition so that users can experience good service of smart TV,with the help of voice recognition feature user can control smart TV with the help OF his voice instead of buttons while we have also provided options for activating or deactivating the voice recognition. User can easily recognize whether the voice recognition is activated or deactivated with the help of microphone icon present on the TV screen. if the microphone is available on the screen it means your voice recognition is activated and if it is not available on the screen then it’s deactivated”.
Samsung also added regarding data being sended to third parties: ”Samsung does not retain voice data or sell it to third parties. If a consumer consents and uses the voice recognition feature, voice data is provided to a third party during a requested voice command search. At that time, the voice data is sent to a server, which searches for the requested content then returns the desired content to the TV”.
That is what Samsung responded to the following issue.we hope you don’t discuss any personal information in front your smart TV or you can just simply disconnect your smart TV with the internet connection and enjoy the popcorn.
