    You presented one that doesn’t have security vulnerabilities? Here’s yet another CVE out for trendnet: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-19239

    Every. Single. Brand. Has. CVEs. I’ve used Mikrotik, I’ve used Cisco, I’ve used Juniper, I’ve used Ubiquiti. I have a trendnet Poe switch in my attic powering some cameras and an AP right now. I have no “problem” with any brand of anything.

    I do have a problem with you implying that a company doesn’t take security seriously when they do. I start to think you’re intentionally lying when you lift up trendnet as the model, because they have quite an especially atrocious history of it.

    Yeah I’ve worked at WISPs that were pushing TBs through their core routers every day. Those core routers? Mikrotiks. Every apartment buildings core routers and fiber aggregation switches? Mikrotiks. You had to get down to the access layer switches that fed the individual apartments to hit Cisco equipment.

    This person is just repeating some shit they read somewhere, hoping it makes them sound knowledgeable. In another post they’re recommending trendnet shit. Get back to me when you can set up BGP peering on your trendnet lol.












  • Im sure they could pump out LED panels without spyware at pretty much the price they’re selling at now, sure. I have doubts they could produce OLED panels without the spyware garbage and keep them at an affordable price for someone making the median annual salary or lower in the US. You just have to look at OLED monitors to get a rough picture of this. A 34” OLED monitor sells for roughly the same price as a 48” OLED television.

    I’m not trying to excuse television manufacturers at all here, it’s bullshit and I hate it, I just don’t have much choice if I want a TV. I just try to be as invaluable as possible to them after that. I don’t see what monopolies have to do with anything here though, there’s a huge of TV manufacturers, from Sony, LG, and Samsung down to bottom of the barrel Chinese brands like TCL and stuff.

    Consumer protection laws that prevent data siphoning by TV manufacturers? Yes please. I’m just not sold on there being any antitrust/monopoly shenanigans going on.
