I already decided to stop buying Samsung TVs when they started showing ads in the menus.
I imagine other consumers will start to make similar choices with their appliances.
Whatever exec thought this was a good idea probably already got a huge bonus and will move on to ruin another company's products before the impact to their bottom line is felt.
But you can't make that choice if every brand does it. And then they can make it not function properly without internet access. They will force the internet of shit on us.
