None of the brands I considered when buying a new dishwasher had any spyware nor networking capability. Electrolux and Gram are both excellent and affordable. My last dishwasher was a Gram that I bought second hand for 300€, used for 12 years, and gave to the new tenant of my old apartment because I couldn’t be arsed to remove it. Never had a single issue.

The only thing LG makes that’s of any value are OLED-panels. The TVs they build around them however suck ass now.
