TV software is getting loaded with ads, changing what it means to own a TV set.

    so your TV doesn’t bother you.

    Many TVs have a constant “no wifi connection” visual error if it’s not connected.

        I haven’t bought a TV in several years, but is this something that is in general TVs? I ask because I plan on getting one soon and would very much like to avoid it having a mic
