I am done with #youtube. So now on smart tv Apps (Or game console App) apparently if you try to skip through it like you'd normally do every time you do it the first time it'll just push it back to the spot it was. Then the every time after it then it'l let you skip through it.
Wow youtube got someone who never blocked ads to really want to block ads on them now. Shouldn't get this bad.
Can you imagine trying to skip through a video when the video overlay comes up but the first time you move it it moves back. Every time you open the video overlay not when you start a new video mind you.
I only started noticing this today apparently it goes back to May but thankfully #vizio #smartcast is slow at updating some apps.

Years long fight over users' right to tweak #smartTV software heads to trial
For years, owners of #Vizio smart TVs have had little control over the software running on their sets—software that can track viewing habits, push ads, and generally shape the experience of using the device.

A long-running lawsuit over Vizio's Linux-based smart #TV software is headed to trial in August, with the #SoftwareFreedomConservancy arguing that #GPL rules require #Vizio to release complete source code owners could use to modify, maintain, or strip ads and #tracking from their TVs.

Yearslong fight over users’ right to tweak smart #TV software heads to trial
#SoftwareFreedomConservancy arguies that #GPL rules require #Vizio to release complete #sourcecode owners could use to modify, maintain, or strip #ads and #tracking or deactivating automatic content recognition from their TVs.
The outcome could reverberate across the industry. Because many of today's popular smart TV operating systems are #Linux-based.

#Vizio TVs Now Require #Walmart Accounts For Smart Features

I stopped using mine as a smart tv. The easiest way to do that is to unplug its network cable, and, if equipped, to shut off its wireless. They're not terrible monitors.

These two @lwn articles are prime examples of why good journalism matters and why you should pay money to make sure it thrives:
They both look beyond the shiny statements from the different parties involved and outside commentators such as @torvalds in this case and explain just how it is from a mostly neutral[1] point of view so that you can make your own judgments.
* GPLv2 and installation requirements – https://lwn.net/Articles/1052842/
* SFC v. VIZIO: who can enforce the GPL? – https://lwn.net/Articles/1052734/
[1] We are humans, and even if we try, we are never completely neutral – and a publication like #LWN that targets the FLOSS community obviously will somewhat look at things from the view of its target audience.
