LG's recent software update has forcibly installed Microsoft Copilot, an AI assistant, on smart TVs without removal options, sparking widespread user backlash over privacy, bloatware, and loss of control. This highlights growing tensions in smart devices, where monetization often overrides user preferences.
A lot of people use TVs to watch shows with someone else. Phones suck for that. When I’m watching something alone I just use my computer and its fine. When I’m watching with someone we use the TV.
That makes sense. My partner and I just lay in bed to watch on our phones, but at his son’s house they have a TV with a firestick and use that.
