   There are alternative solutions to each of these that don't involve renting bytes you have to read on a tiny TV.

   It's just wild because this has been happening with DRM content for a couple of decades now, seems like, and everybody acts shocked every time.

   @johnefrancis @arstechnica Mine are both a bit older too. One is connected but the other is not, because it becomes almost non-functional when it is disconnected. I'm replacing my home routing setup with something a bit more sophisticated, and I'm going to see how well the router's ad-blocking DNS works on the TV.

   It's such a shame that the Digital Milenium Copyright Act makes it nearly impossible for anyone to create an open-source TV OS to replace the bloatware TV manufacturers ship.

   This is The First TV.

   It came on randomly when I turned on my Samsung TV. So like it's very wild that probably people will stumble across this and think this is some authority with vetting, fact checking and the like.

   The wild thing is airlines are reducing standards in quality. But it's not for some replacement theory. This is a really effective noise maker.
