LG doesn’t make disabling Live Plus too hard, though you do have to click through a few menus. If you want to turn it off, here’s how:
1. Press the Settings button on your remote (the gear icon).
2. When the side menu pops up, select Settings.
3. Chose the General option.
4. Scroll down and select System.
5, Select Additional Settings.
6. Toggle Live Plus off.
In the Settings menu on its TVs, LG says, “By turning Live Plus on, you understand that the content displayed on your TV can be recognized, and that the viewing information may be used to provide you with an enhanced viewing experience and personalized services including content recommendations and advertisements.”
And then fingers crossed. Since you don’t know if this option is doing something at all. After all their source code is not open source.
Anyhow… Have fun. Good luck. And it’s better to fully disconnect your smart TV from the internet and wifi. And just use your own home theater computer with Linux. And don’t use any of their smart features or apps.
