"Man, I wish I could buy a TV that didn't have any of that gross telemetry and smart nonsense that will make it useless in five years"Oh, yes, but what if we did the opposite, tho?https://www.freetelly.com/

@louis idk if the solution to "I don't approve of how art is produced and distributed" is "stop consuming art" tho

@rgegriff Well, I wouldn't exactly call watching TV „consuming art“. I also did not refer to the act of how this kind of "art" is produced.If the only way of "consuming" this kind of "art" is to buy a device that abuses your right to privacy and invades your life by watching, listening and tracking you, then clearly I would stop engaging with that form of free art where you are basically the product.
