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.

Later or Agree
No Disagree option

A rapist mentality.

As with all these services, the "disagree" option is "stop using our devices and services" which really should be illegal when it's tied to hardware you already bought it and the terms changed after the fact.

It's our hardware so we should be able to select another provider or host our own. Not that I consider ad tracking a "service".
