    I have seen some talk over on XDA forums, but since there is more to an android TV than just the basic android OS, it’s a bit trickier without risking losing licences/compatibility/DRM/features.

    Some older LG webOS tvs can be rooted and custom apps installed too such as ad free youtube players etc.

      Just found some LG business TVs/displays/signage that actually run Tizen. Remember that cool Linux distro that was supposed to take over the mobile world nearly 15 years ago? Well, turns out, it didn’t, but it didn’t it die completely either.

      Hopefully those panels are a bit more hackable or more privacy oriented.
