    Yep. Until you can’t find non-garbage products anymore because 95% of everyone else is dumb enough to fall for it.

    I think there’s a reasonable case to be made against buyer beware here, we need to ban this shit.

      For example, try buying a television in a retail store that doesn’t have “smart” features at all, just inputs, outputs, and a digital tuner.

        I wish. I really do. I want it so badly. My TV upgrades over the past 4 years have all been thrift store finds because I refuse to be forced to buy a device that WILL be obsolete one day.
