I'm looking forward to the day where I can get a 80 inch smart-tv for free because it's financed with ads and in app purchases. Then I will disable the ads and use it as a dumb-tv behind my receiver.
- danparsonson 5y ago> Then I will disable the ads... No you won't, because there will be no switch for that and it will include a 5G chip and therefore connect itself to the internet whether or not you want it to. Can't get online for 30 days? Sorry, you violated the TOS that you agreed to without reading and now your free TV will only play nyan cat on a loop.
- YeBanKo 5y agoThis is painfully reminiscent of the Black Mirror episode “ Fifteen Million Merits”, in which at one moment the main character has to watch odious ad, be he does not have enough “money” to skip it. Ubiquitous 5G, xfinity public access points, Amazon Echo networks will make it absolutely possible.
