Usher's Super Bowl Halftime Show on Apple TV.

Super Bowl 2024 has come and gone. (The Chiefs won. Again.) That means we have another full year to go before the next one — Super Bowl LIX is scheduled for Sunday, February 9, 2025, in New Orleans — though the hype is sure to never actually stop.

And that rings true for the Super Bowl Halftime Show as well. Whether you thought Usher’s 2024 performance was one of the ages — or that it was nostalgia overshadowed by the likes of H.E.R. and Alicia Keys — it’s worth watching again. And it’s pretty easy to get an official replay of the Super Bowl LVIII Halftime Show.

If you’re using an Apple TV box (that is, the hardware from Apple itself and our reigning pick for the best streaming device you can buy), just head into the Apple TV app and you’ll see Usher front and center. For now, anyway. That’ll likely change at some point, and you might have to search it out. Note that it doesn’t get the same sort of placement on other platforms as it does in the Apple TV app. It’s officially the Apple Music Halftime Show, and so Apple TV gets some special love. (Same goes for the TV app on Apple devices, though. Go figure.)

Or, you can hit up the NFL YouTube Channel and check out the halftime show performances there.

Given that this is YouTube we’re talking about, though, we can go one better. We can simply embed all the Usher you could possibly handle. We can make it so you don’t have to leave this very website to see Lil John and Will.i.am. We can have Usher’s gloved hand magically appear beneath these very words, getting you to the full halftime show set that much quicker. Isn’t the future great?

Proton reveals how smart TVs track you and the escape situation is pretty grim 
Modern smart TVs fingerprint your screen content at the chipset level.

Your smart TV may know far more about your viewing habits than you realize, even if you rarely use its smart features. In a new privacy explainer, Proton warns that many modern TVs quietly collect data about everything displayed on the screen and share it with manufacturers, advertisers, and analytics companies.

The worrying part is that escaping this tracking is becoming increasingly difficult because many privacy controls are buried deep in settings or enabled by default. Proton argues that buying a smart TV today often means accepting a level of surveillance that most people never knowingly signed up for.

LG is cracking down on smart TV apps that quietly turn your TV into a secret proxy
LG OLED Settings

If you own an LG smart TV, there's a chance one of your harmless-looking apps has been moonlighting as an internet relay for someone else's traffic. According to a report from KrebsOnSecurity, LG says it's finally stepping in to stop this menace. This week, the company confirmed it plans to suspend any webOS app that turns a TV into what's called a residential proxy node.

The move follows a report from security firm Spur, which found that more than 42 percent of apps on LG's webOS store include SDKs that quietly reroute internet traffic through your TV, indefinitely. Samsung isn't spared either, with over a quarter of Tizen apps carrying similar code.

The LG C6 OLED is great out of the box. These settings make it even better.
From Filmmaker Mode to shadow detail and AI Sound Pro, these are the settings that made the biggest difference after a month of testing the LG C6 OLED.

The LG C6 OLED is one of the best mid-range OLED TVs you can buy right now. After spending the past month testing and using it every day, one thing became clear: straight out of the box, you're leaving picture quality on the table.

The good news is that getting more out of the TV doesn't require professional calibration or hours spent digging through menus. A handful of small adjustments can make movies look more cinematic, improve shadow detail, smooth out motion and even make the built-in speakers sound noticeably better. Here are the exact settings I've been using after living with the LG C6.
