They're not a bad actor, I wouldn't be surprised if they have no idea they're even logged in. I actually just threw away my TV in the local drop off point. I thought it was broken beyond a point that was worth to repair but I'm guessing somebody more handy than me picked it up and DIYed it

Sorry to hear about your predicament (best of luck)

This scenario illustrates why “smart” TVs aren’t such a great idea (you think it’s dead and can’t log out, but someone else eventually fixes it or uses its parts)
