Vizio is the worst. I bought a TV of theirs back in 2017 because it was just a display with integrated chromecast. Having a remote with 8 buttons that does both tv volume and chromecast play/pause is awesome.

Not too long later, they mailed me a standard garbage fire smart tv remote, and pushed a software update to add all the cancerous smart TV features. I've never accepted the terms of service, so it still kinda works like it used to.

The funniest part is when the ToS beg window comes up every time I turn it on, I get to enjoy the incredibly condescending language telling me that I bought a smart tv and that smart tvs have certain data collection requirements. Did I buy a smart tv, vizio?
