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.
Sony is also a terrible company with a long history of anti-consumer behaviour.

I always wonder how much my PS5 is spying on me.
