How to escape from surveillance when watching television? (lemmy.ml)

I currently use a large computer monitor as a television, and use a Google TV hdmi plugin to access content.

Rather than have Google selling all my personal data I would rather pay more for a privacy respecting alternative. Does something like the Vero V offer similar functionality, and if not what should I be using?

Ideally the solution should be family friendly using a remote to operate, and can access mainstream channels

Plex tracks everything you watch

Why did I write Plex? I moved to Jellyfin maybe 3 or 4 years ago and never looked back. I have to edit my comment.
