I avoid smart crap as much as possible, but now my parents were hit: they've had the same TV and cable box thing for many years, and this month it started showing ads on everything: the menus, paused movies, past recordings. Unskippable ads as well.
It's just so tiring, I dread the day I will need to buy a new car and they will all have touchscreen internet connected gimmicks and ads.

- grumpy-cowboy 5y agoBy definition, all ads are unsolicited.
- delcaran 5y agoNextDNS has a feature to block ads and tracking also from SmartTV's producers. Works wonders.
