Zikten 12/24/18 6:15:10 PM #1:	never had a smart tv before and got one recently. and seems like every couple weeks or so I see this notification that a phone is trying ask for permission on my tv. I don't even know what a smart phone in some other apartment could even do with my tv. would they be able to watch what's on my tv, on their phone? I keep denying it, and it keeps popping back up. I can't even tell if they are doing it on purpose or it's the phone auto doing it. cause I know my phone has tried to do similar stuff or asked me if I wanted to at least. <cite>Zikten posted [p:914659371] in some smart...

You get a lust of devices it can detect but they're named like SamsungLN7000-GT4789 or some shit. If your neighbor has a similar tv or fat fingers it may be easy to try and connect to the wrong one. --- PSN: Jiek FFRK: Tyro God Wall KZcv <cite>Jiek_Fafn posted [p:914659560] in some smart...
