Yeah, because everyone is asking for that. They will force ads into everything they can, because Google is an Ad company.

      Dude, do you remember how expensive a 65” 4k TV was when the technology debuted? Paying $1000 nowadays for what’s basically cutting-edge display tech is nothing - they were in the neighborhood of $10k or more when they were first produced. And you can get one with older tech from TCL or whatever for like $3-400 now, which is embarrassingly cheap for a 65” 4k.

        A lot of technology is expensive when it’s first introduced and it has not reached mass market yet. Bigger TVs were already gaining popularity before Smart TVs. Getting cutting-edge display tech from a couple decades ago ain’t all that.

        Nah, this stuff is not nearly cheap enough to justify all the spyware and ads.
