On hand at the launch (of The Institute at Ben-Gurion University), according to coverage, were officials from global firms like Microsoft and General Motors, as well as top-tier Israeli politicians, like Herzog, the president. (A spokesperson for GM told The Intercept they could not confirm the company’s attendance.)

An American auto maker showing up at the opening of a secretive cyberspying training academy in Israel is concerning.

My set-up doesn't include a smart tv ... I specifically stayed away from buying one because of the monitoring they can do on my usage.

So mine is a good LCD > HDMI'd to my laptop > running a good VPN > links to multiple streaming sources that offer everything from live sports to new movies/TV shows.

Been running this way for over 20 yrs now and it works for me.
