The home screen/main menu shows ads on the left hand side all the time.
In my case, in Australia, it's often "BigPond Movies" which I'm not a subscriber to.
See for example this screenshot from a review...

- bhaak 9y agoInteresting. No, I don't have that. Maybe a country specific thing or even outright prohibited in Europe.
- Vilkku 9y agoProbably just country specific, we have the ads here in Finland as well.
- sapphire_tomb 9y agoNot prohibited in Europe (at least, not in the UK) - I get them on my LG too.
- lsh 9y agoyes, you can get rid of that quite easily though and preserve your viewing privacy (LG collect all they can on you as well). You just have to block your TV's MAC address at the router.
- amdavidson 9y agoWhy is your TV connected to your network if you're going to block it's address at the router?
- bhaak 9y agoWhen letting the TV onto your network but restrict its internet access, you can still stream content from a DLNA capable media server onto your TV.
