The free ad-supported TV is on its way to some customers.

so basically you’re getting a surveillance device shipped straight to your living room.

    You can buy good quality TVs that are maybe 2-3 years old in sales or secondhand which would be much better than this, and no need for ads.

    I’ve seen people get an LG C1 for like $100 secondhand and there’s nothing wrong with it. You don’t have to spend close to or upwards of 1,000 on a TV.

      Somebody posted another comment with the exact same idea, and I think y’all are under-estimating the amount of people who live under the poverty line (11%/~4M people in the US for instance), and the even larger amount of people who live below a living wage, and therefore all have zero buying power for consumer discretionary items, let alone having $100 to spend.
