An investigation by Gamers Nexus found LG smart TVs sweep local networks to map phones and nearby devices. Tests also showed the sets can capture microphone audio with the screen off — they then upload data once reconnected to the internet.

Same here, smart devices go on a very restricted VLAN. Most only get access to Home Assistant for control.
Even without deliberate spying from these devices letting these things loose on the network at large has always seemed a bad idea to me.
