It seems to be related to some advertising push from a partner named Alfonso that is gathering information cross-platform anything that appears on your screen and pushing advertising to you during playback.
Hopefully not, but that’s what it looks like from early reading.
This is one of my pet peeves. With these modern internet connected devices, manufacturers can just change the terms and conditions on you after you’ve made the purchase. OK, so would it be fair to say I can also change the terms and conditions, like for example this devalues my product and I want part of my money back?
It’s such bullshit, especially with something like a phone or a TV, the software is a big part of why I select a certain device to purchase over another. I then want that devices to behave exactly like when I purchased it. Being connected to the internet means it requires regular updates for security. But these days that also means fucking with the features and the EULA, I hate that shit.

Didn’t some very clever person send a company his own change of terms and conditions? I think I remember something like that.
I wish I was an extremely smart lawyer type person and could jack them up like that myself.
There’s been quite a few class actions over this. A famous one is sony dropping the ability to install linux on the ps3.
