A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

There is a reason to connect a TV to the internet. there is not for a monitor.
Check this video from Gamer's Nexus. They don't even need an ethernet cable, they can just install ads/malware directly through Windows Update.
Windows installed that malware. The monitor has no way of installing anything on its own.
Nobody forces you to install the LG app. Nobody forces you to use windows either...
