Don't you just love the digital age? -_-
yeah idk why all electrical appliances need to be smart, didn't even want that in the first place
I have to be smart so that they can spy on you. Duh!

And now LG wants to sell you a subscription on top of that 💀
I do love the digital age and modern tech, but I understand many of the privacy concerns.
I mean there are some things that just shouldn't be adapted into the digital world. I wouldn't say cars are one of them, but many features most likely aren't even being used in said vehicle by the owner.
I understand your point, but they could also just make it more privacy friendly to the consumer. We don't want to feel like we're being used against our will even if we "agreed" to the terms of service.
