Nowadays, smart TVs are becoming more and more the main force in the market. However, most of them are Android systems, and there are also Samsung's Tizen, LG's webOS, etc. You know, any smart product may be hacked, stuck, or bricked. Foreign media reported an unlucky user Darren Cauthon. Let's take a look at his "painful" experience. Darren bought an LG TV in his early years. At that time, LG launched the Google TV product (Android system). Of course, it was later abandoned and replaced with webOS. He said that his family didn't know what software they installed. When watching a movie, the FBI warning screen suddenly popped up, prompting that the copyright content was infringed and a payment of $500 was required . Because there is no touch screen and the remote control cannot be operated, the TV is in the state of a brick. Because the FBI will not warn in this way, it can be confirmed that it is malicious ransomware. Darren also tried to ask LG customer service for help, but unfortunately the TV was out of warranty and could only cost $340 for paid maintenance. At present, Darren is waiting for the help of kind netizens or the warning to be automatically eliminated. He does not intend to spend hundreds of dollars on a TV with little residual value.
