Roku provides the simplest way to stream entertainment to your TV. On your terms. With thousands of available channels to choose from.

Audio, electronic, visual, thermal, olfactory, or similar information.

Clarification: after a bit of research it seems the olfactory section pertains to CCPA California law, many places have olfactory in the privacy policy because it is required by the law. I can’t believe we reached a point where we have to put olfactory in the privacy policy, but then again it won’t be long before Smell-O-Vision becomes reality.

They removed it, archived here: https://archive.ph/YYBuJ

Also have a California ip you get a different privacy policy.

      Not sure about LG. But it also depends on model as well afaik. Most Samsungs I know that were bought via Walmart, Best Buy, Costco, etc had that issue, but one of my commercial clients bought a couple and it was a non-issue, so ymmv. I typically like Sonys, but I also have a reseller account with them through my wholesaler and get them significantly cheaper than retail.

        I have an LG GX and have never experienced this. I’d assume the G line and up won’t have this issue, and to my knowledge even the lower tier C models don’t have this issue. A friend of mine recently got a C3 (I think, idk what they’re up to yet, maybe 4? It’s the newest C model) and it doesn’t have this ad issue either.

          I’ll be honest, the 3 times I’ve seen it were Samsungs and purchased at box stores. The rest I have no firsthand experience, but I’ve seen enough people bitching about it online.

      We bought a LG QED 80" 4k at Costco. Not once did I enter a wifi, hasn’t asked me at all 6 months later.

            From what device?
            They all spy on u.

            Unless u are using Linux, but majority of people just use whatever is installed on tv

              I do indeed use linux, on an unused laptop hidden away in my tv cabinet. I’m fairly confident it’s not spying on me… but you never know. Unfortunately you are correct, most people do just use whatever is on the TV, ignorant to the accompanying issues this causes for both themselves and society at large.

          Did you know you can connect an external device to your television and get Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, paramount, NFL, plex, youtube etc.

            But ofc I do. So my question is - which device are u connecting?

            Unless it’s open source and called Kodi or you are connecting some Linux device - they all gonna be spying on u - that’s my point.
