I have no doubt people will be able to hack it. What I'm saying is there is no way it could be hacked without the company finding out and forcing you to return it or pay up. When you sign up you have to give them your personal information and credit card. If you disconnect it from the Internet, filter its Internet traffic, or modify it in any way they will tell you to return it and if you don't return it they will charge the credit card.

From their terms of service:

In order to use the Product and Services, You will:

(a) Use the Product as the primary television in Your household;

(b) Keep the Product connected to WiFi and internet; and

(c) Not use any software on Your WiFi network that with advertising blocking capability.

(d) Not make physical modifications to the Product or attach peripheral devices to the Product not expressly approved by Telly. Any attempt to open the Product’s enclosure will be deemed an unauthorized modification.

If we discover that You are not abiding by the requirements above or have disconnected the Product from an internet connection or WiFi for more than short periods each month, You will no longer be able to use the Service and You must return any Products in your possession to Telly. Failure to return Products to Telly will result in Telly charging the credit card on file.

No, the maker has stated they have measures in place to detect any tampering, and that if you tamper with the device, fail to connect it to the Internet, or do not use it frequently they will make you return it or pay for it.

They have said that they can't stop people from doing that, but that the settings menus, such as the input switcher, will be on the bottom screen.

The settings menus (input switcher, etc) will be on it. Also it will collect data on anything you view using the main screen (HDMI input, etc) regardless.

They have stated they have measures in place to detect anyone trying to do that and will require them to return the TV or pay for it.

Does it work with password manager apps like Google keyboard does?

This makes Breezewood is one of the worst case examples of this kind of development. When explaining something it helps to use an extreme example, so I'm not saying people shouldn't use the photo, but it's worth keeping the perspective that that image is literally as bad as it gets.

I will say it is the worst place to be a pedestrian that I have personally experienced. Four lanes of constant heavy traffic with no sidewalks or pedestrian crossings.

The photo was taken near 39.998760,-78.242210 if you want to look it up on your map of choice.
