Can't use Netflix app unless you agree to allow ads from samsung
Great TV with a fantastic image but the ads that Samsung shoves down my gullet are completely unacceptable and in some cases make the TV unusable unless I swallow the load of ads. Turn on the TV, can't select the LIVE TV tile because an ad for an app is covering it. Despite refusing to agree to the stated terms and conditions I have no choice but to click on the excrement, wait for it to load then close the intrusion. I am limited to 3 options: completely disconnect the smart TV from the Internet (unacceptable), tolerate the intrusive ads (heck no), or return the TV and buy another brand. Samsung tech support calls this "shove it down your throat marketing" a feature. I am barred from using the Netflix app and the service I pay for unless I agree to allow Samsung to drown me in ads and collect my information. Unacceptable. The cost of returning the TV is high so I have opted to give it to a local hospice and buy another brand of TV.
