LG monitor asking about ad tracking preferences (x.com)

It. Is. Never. Enough.

You paid hundreds of dollars for a new monitor, but it doesn't matter. More ads, more profits.

I hate it.

That's tragic, LG monitors used to be great.

Honestly Korean brands are just not options anymore, between the ads from LG and Samsung, and the spying by Hyundai and Kia there's simply no reason to buy their products.

Don't literally all car manufacturers spy on everyone all the time to an ungodly degree? Not saying it's a good thing, but Kia and Hyundai aren't different here.

Yes.

Kia is still a good choice to boycott because they'll let car thieves start your vehicle with any random USB thumbdrive.
