· Texas Border Business
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has reached a settlement with LG Electronics to enhance privacy protections for consumers using smart TVs. The agreement prohibits LG from using Automated Content Recognition (ACR) technology to collect viewing data without user consent. LG will implement a pop-up disclosure on its smart TVs and update its website to inform users about data collection practices. Additionally, LG has committed to preventing the transfer of viewing data to the Chinese Communist Party. This settlement follows Paxton's previous legal actions against other companies, ensuring Texans' privacy rights are upheld in their homes.
