pretty soon smart TVs will have so much bloatware that they will be free to use lol you'll just have to let them harvest your data
Apple desperately needs to enter the smart tv market so these shitheels have something to copy.
All these smart tv interfaces are trash and now that Walmart is positioning itself as a market leader with its purchase or Vizio and Amazon already entrenched, it's time for a real tech giant, one that has been designing interfaces for decades to step in and show them how it's done.
Having a retail giants own the experience is an idocracy distopia. If Apple did even a tenth of the shit these tv manufacturers were actively doing, the internet would be flooded with Apple-Bad(tm) articles.
Never connect a smart TV to the internet, it is not worth it.
Nooooooo…
I can't wait for it to sell me something
