Samsung: We will remotely brick smart TVs looted from our warehouse

even simpler : don't configure any WIFI.

You need to at least tell the TV which WIFI network to connect to ( and if you're not dumb provide the password needed for that specific network ) before that TV can connect to Internet.

If you don't provide those there's no way it can connect, so there's no way it can be bricked.
