I bought a Sony Smart TV for my mother. She wanted a TV with Netflix. The legacy fallback of "Sony is a great brand" I really take back. While being home for new years, flicking through the channels I ended up on a public TV channel (UK) and got a popup of "This channel is using analytics, please consent". Flabbergasted for the fact that I face cookie banners and now on TV channels? For my mother that would of been on a phone call. Not only is the UI attrocious in that it downloads meta-data "Latest trending netflix" which causes the whole TV to become unresponsive where your unable to skip though channels. BBC iPlayer displays a OSD on any BBC channel which you can't turn off of "Do you wish to watch this show from the beginnering". Maybe good features just rubbishly designed Why is it so hard to just create a smart TV that just TV's?
