_Can_ you reject Samsung's EULA? My Q90T prompts me to accept it every time it's turned on, but the only option appears to be to accept it. I can't find a "no/reject" option.

I do what you suggest in step (3), and never connect it the TV to a network, but it's still concerning.

I can on my 2019 model. Maybe they changed it? What happens if you ignore it and switch HDMI inputs with the remote?

[kelleyk]

You can absolutely ignore it, even without switching inputs; it appears above the menu/input bar at the bottom and isn't modal.

However, it reappears every time the TV is turned on. At some point, a houseguest (assuming those are a thing at some point in the future) is going to hit "okay", or I'm going to do so accidentally while fumbling with the remote, and that isn't the same thing as actual/deliberate consent from me, the owner of the device.

[TedDoesntTalk]

Are you saying it displays even when the input source is selected for your external device/computer? That does not happen for me. And when I turn off/on the TV, it remembers the last selected input source -- so the external device/computer displays right away.

Is it a pre-gdpr model? When GDPR went through a lot of companies changed... slightly...

GDPR applies to all practices after a certain date, not just hardware sold after XYZ.

Try sending a letter to their privacy officer. You might get a model upgrade ;)
