I honestly don’t put it past Samsung. Their TVs already do. I have an old monitor, and I’m currently using what will probably be my last smartphone from them. They make good hardware, but I’m tired of them insisting on knowing everything I do to use it.

They do not ask you to login to use your monitor.

Yet. Their TVs, on the other hand, will do everything in their power to go online. Their phones just had an update to their software where the privacy policy is basically “We need access to all your data if you want to use anything beyond the base functionality.” So, given the trends, no, I don’t put it past them.
