LG’s TV business is heightening focus on selling ads and tracking.

    Glad I’ve kept mine offline all this time. Also have a PiHole that I hope would stop this shit too.

    I got enough of it from Samsung.

    For the amount of money I paid for these TVs, I should get a discount if you’re going to shove some ads down my throat. Especially when most of them are irrelevant to my interests.

      Paid products should have ZERO ads whether relevant or not. I cancelled Amazon prime the minute they added ads into videos. Fuck that shit.

      As a consequence my Amazon shopping has taken a nose dive. I used to buy shit constantly because I had free shipping now I have to really really REALLY need something and even then I’ll wait till I need at least 35$ worth to still get free shipping.

      If more people stood up to enshitification we’d be much better off as consumers.
