Well, at least one consumer has filed suit about smart TVs (in this case, Vizio) collecting personal data and selling it:

I for one have absolutely no plans to own a so-called "smart" television in the future. One of the really bizarre parts about all this is people buy a TV for enjoyment. They shouldn't be forced into acting out some sort of comical scenario worthy of being featured in those old Don Martin Spy vs. Spy cartoons so prevalent in MAD magazine back in the 1960's or the infamous Cone of Silence from the minds who scripted the TV show Get Smart! from that same era.
