    Worth pointing out this isn’t any proper Android TV devices, but rather those cheap boxes that are often basically SBCs with AOSP installed on them which are predominantly sold as easy piracy boxes.

    Edit: in fact, the article doesn’t currently have TV in the title

      Leaving out the TV makes it less precise and more clickbaity because then it sounds like Android phones are affected.

        I guess the problem is that “Android TV” is a specific thing that none of these devices actually are, they’re just dodgy boxes running Android that can be plugged into a TV.

        For me it’s more clickbaity because Android TV isn’t actually involved here at all.

          I’d say it would be more clickbaity if you just removed the “TV”, because it’d make you think of smartphones, and those would be much more concerning
