My new TV wouldn't work unless I agreed to it recoding and uploading those recordings to it's servers which may be temporary stored while they are transcribing the audio to text for more permanent storage.

My TV is forcing me into a employment agreement where I generated data to train their models or otherwise 'improve service'.

Data is so valuable companies are risking a huge PR backlash. Data collection is the business model and I assume the same ethos will make its away into open source.
