It. Is. Never. Enough.

You paid hundreds of dollars for a new monitor, but it doesn’t matter. More ads, more profits.

I hate it.

    As with all these services, the “disagree” option is “stop using our devices and services” which really should be illegal when it’s tied to hardware you already bought it and the terms changed after the fact.

      I wonder how things would go if they made you agree to the terms before being allowed to purchase it.

      People bring it to the till, and then just hand it back saying nope.

      I bought an LG microwave a few months ago to replace a dead 10 year old Sharp. My favorite “features”:

      • The sticker on the door stating that by using the microwave I agree to LG’s TOS, including binding arbitration.
      • The single 4 minutes and 30 seconds of use I got out of it before the magnetron broke.

      When I returned it they customer service person asked if I wanted it serviced under warranty – hilarious. Bought a Panasonic instead.

      It’s our hardware so we should be able to select another provider or host our own. Not that I consider ad tracking a “service”.
