    @grok Why would my tv reach out to this webhost? If a tv were reaching out to this IP address,would it be proof of compromise? What if I confirmed that through my own actions,exploited by CVE-2020-9839, by my own hands? would that prove third party exploit of my TV could have occured?

    Post summary

    The tweet speculates whether TV traffic to a webhost indicates compromise and references CVE-2020-9839 in a hypothetical scenario, without offering any PoC, exploit details, patches, or evidence of active exploitation.
