    Honestly I don’t get why Rossman cry so much about “he expected that his $2000> LG TV would not track him or at least have the option turned off by default.”

    Why shouldn’t they? Why would anyone expect in the first place that by buying a more expensive product they are going to care about your data? Obviously it benefits them to sell everyone’s data, from Rossman’s point of view it sounds like people who buy cheap products deserve to have their data sold because the company is making a loss by selling them the product.

    I usually agree with Rossman’s points, but this one in particular sounds ridiculous to me.

      Yeah he’s really upset about LG, but it seems like everything tracks you these days. Seems a bit shortsighted to just shit on LG and no one else.

        He shits on everyone all the time. It’s not exclusive to LG or even Apple. It’s just whatever happens to come to his attention. Which is basically pick a company and they’re doing something horrible.

          Except Framework. But they provide schematics.

        If you open his channel, you will see how he shits on all anti-repair crapufacturers.

      I watched him and it is obvious he is against “You bought from X? Lol, screw you!” mentality.
