Illegal take but I actually do like smart TVs. Unless you never use any streaming services, it's a useful feature that would otherwise require an external device to do the same thing. Now if you have your own home server or something, that's cool too, but that's more hassle than I want to deal with.
Smart TVs are, for sure, easier to setup, but TV manufacturers are starting to inject their ads to anything that is showing on the TV. Sorry, but I don't want to see any ads while watching a movie, or playing games.
I don't care whether the TV is smart, or not. I will just not connect it to internet, and I'll use it as a monitor. No one is messing with my boss fights!
