I want my smart Android TV to be dumb again (www.androidauthority.com)

Smart TVs are all well and good, but when ad-focused update lobotomized my new-ish Android TV, we hit a problem.

The only downside is that they aren't giving away Apple TVs for free at my job lol I guess I got what I paid for 🤷‍♂️

You are the product. I wouldn’t be surprised if your company got paid to give them out. They almost certainly got them for free at least. If they didn’t, they’re fools.

They’re free to you because Amazon is getting paid for the ads you see. You’re also working for Amazon, now.
