LG's recent software update has forcibly installed Microsoft Copilot, an AI assistant, on smart TVs without removal options, sparking widespread user backlash over privacy, bloatware, and loss of control. This highlights growing tensions in smart devices, where monetization often overrides user preferences.
What’s wrong with not having a TV? I feel like a weirdo for even asking, but honest question. I had a black and white TV that got three channels in 2001, but haven’t had it or any other TV since then. I just watch Netflix on my phone.
The only place where the AI push is annoying me so far is fb msngr adding a screen-space hog of “use meta to summarize 12 unread messages” when I’ve already read them three times and the messages are shorter than a summary would be 😂
Nothing wrong with it tbh. If your phone is big enough for ya that’s fine.
If you ever did get a tv get something like a roku to use for netflix.
