Okay I read the article and it’s way more dystopian than a free tv in exchange for ads. This thing is pretty creepy.

I didn’t realize it has like a camera counting the viewers and their participation, and that you had to use it exclusively as your main tv, and that you can’t even put stuff in front of the ad screen.

Jesus Christ.
