I wonder why this didn't happen? Maybe US BestBuys were not good at tracking serial numbers and reporting them after the riots? It actually seems more likely a US looter would connect a TV to the Internet than a South African one.

Politics. If Samsung went after the majority of looters in the US who just so happen to fit a specific demographic, then it would be a hate crime here. In South Africa, they are a ruling party so turning off their TVs is ok.
