    You basically need to buy a commercial model to get one that doesn’t have or need an internet connection to do what you need it to.

    You can just not hook your TV up to the internet

      That’s really not what I would want. If I’m not going to use the smart features, I wouldn’t want them baked into the display, it’s just more shit that can go wrong that I don’t need. The OSD menus are all built into whatever “smart” bullshit is included. So you have to plug it in once and a while to check for updates and whatnot so it doesn’t get all fucky for no reason.

      If I want a basic bitch display, I want it to be a basic bitch display. I don’t want the risk or complexity of having that extra bullshit.
