I threw away all TVs in my house after the proliferation of ads on the Home Screen. Sorry, the only value a TV has is displaying images and audio at large sizes. Not getting me to shop. So I decided to get rid of them all and now I use large monitors and projectors. Make TVs dumb again.

The article is about radio waves from TV broadcast towers, not the TV in your home.

This makes no sense.

This problem is solved via two ways (or both at once):

- Pihole

- Unplug the TV from ethernet and disable wifi

All my TVs display no ads because they are jailed.
