"The findings, presented in November in Madrid at the Internet Measurement Conference (IMC 2024) and published in the Proceedings of the 2024 ACM on Internet Measurement Conference, highlight the frequency with which these screenshots are transmitted to the servers of the brands analyzed: Samsung and LG. Specifically, the research showed that Samsung TVs sent this information every minute, while LG devices did so every 15 seconds.
"This gives us an idea of the intensity of the monitoring and shows that smart TV platforms collect large volumes of data on users, regardless of how they consume content, whether through traditional TV viewing or devices connected via HDMI, like laptops or gaming consoles," Callejo emphasizes.
To test the ability of TVs to block ACR tracking, the research team experimented with various privacy settings on smart TVs. The results demonstrated that, while users can voluntarily block the transmission of this data to servers, the default setting is for TVs to perform ACR."
