tail: 无法监视
You’re not just paranoid: your smart TV really is tracking what you watch. And yes: other devices in your house are showing relevant ads based on what you watch.
您不仅仅是偏执狂：您的智能电视确实在跟踪您的观看内容。 是的：您家中的其他设备正在根据您观看的内容展示相关的广告。
This is true whether you’re watching online content or watching conventional TV, because of a sophisticated algorithm that can identify what you’re watching at all times. A system like this called Samba TV is active on millions of TVs right now—possibly including yours.
无论您是在观看在线内容还是在观看常规电视，都是如此，这是因为复杂的算法可以随时识别您正在观看的内容。 像Samba TV这样的系统目前可在数百万台电视上运行-可能包括您的电视在内。
Here’s Sapna Maheshwari, writing for The New York Times:
这是Sapna Maheshwari，为《纽约时报》撰稿：
Once enabled, Samba TV can track nearly everything that appears on the TV on a second-by-second basis, essentially reading pixels to identify network shows and ads, as well as programs on Netflix and HBO and even video games played on the TV. Samba TV has even offered advertisers the ability to base their targeting on whether people watch conservative or liberal media outlets and which party’s presidential debate they watched.
启用后，Samba TV可以每秒跟踪几乎所有出现在电视上的内容，本质上是读取像素来识别网络节目和广告，以及Netflix和HBO上的程序，甚至是电视上播放的视频游戏。 Samba TV甚至为广告商提供了将目标锁定在人们观看保守还是自由媒体以及他们观看了哪个政党总统辩论上的能力。
Here’s how to stop your smart TV from spying on you, in case this all leaves you feeling uneasy. Personally, we think smart TVs are stupid and that you shouldn’t buy one if you can avoid it.
这是防止智能电视监视您的方法，以防万一使您感到不安。 就个人而言，我们认为智能电视是愚蠢的，如果可以避免的话，您不应该购买它。
Of course at this point so-called smart TVs can be cheaper than those without such features, in part because of advertising features like this. Our advice: don’t connect the things to the internet.
当然，在这一点上，所谓的智能电视可以比不具有这些功能的智能电视便宜，部分原因在于这种广告功能。 我们的建议：不要将事物连接到互联网。
