TechLG defends smart-TV features amid audio surveillance allegations

LG denies allegations that its smart TVs record ambient conversations, listen while on standby or retain recordings for later transmission. The company says voice data is processed only after users activate far-field recognition and press the remote’s voice button or use the “Hi LG” wake word. Gamers Nexus and researchers allege broader tracking and collection of network data and audio transcripts, but Al Jazeera has not independently verified the claims.
