Serious question: what’s the mechanism of this? I can think of a few it might be but I honestly don’t know:

Is it that 99.9% of the market wants smart TVs and there’s not enough demand for dumb TVs to support a production run?
Is it that existing companies can somehow block smaller upstarts from entering the market, and then they decided as a cartel to end dumb TVs?
Is the NSA infiltrating TV companies to force this product line choice?
Is there a new law requiring that all TVs get smart?
Some mechanism I haven’t thought of?
