main problem with smart tvs is are they going to get longterm software support unlike smart phones which get changed every 12-24 months under contract people tend to keep their tv's for >5years
if the manufactures keep bringing out new models are they really going to keep supporting a model from 5 years ago.
if you want a smarttv buy a dumb tv and connect a pc or one of those android hdmi thumb devices probably be cheaper in the long run
if people really want to hide their communications there are plenty of alternatives.
i.e. a vpn to a friend /relative in another country then run skype/google talk and email through that.
what is the indian government going to do put a complete block on all secure communiaction unless it has 'backdoor' access. I can't really see how it is going to do this.
If people really have something to hide im sure they will use more that just an encruypted voip service.
colour blind people cann't see red and green does this mean they cann't drive
if you know where on the dial the speeds are you don't need to be able to read them to know your speed.
the eye test with driving is to test your ability to see obsticals and hazards and has nothing to do with your ability to read.
