My LG TVs have about 6 options in terms and conditions . 2 are required to accept just to have the TV function, they are pretty standard. The remaining are focused on voice authorization, using your info for ads, making an LG account etc. I have never accepted those and my TV works just fine. I don’t even have an LG account created.
However, there must have been an update that changed one aspect, I went to use the streamio app, and LG now requires an LG account to update it. I have not been prompted for the same with the standard streaming services. This is probably going to get me to finally use a streaming box. And before anyone jumps on me for not doing that prior, it’s due to wife approval factor. I have to make it dead simple, no multiple remotes, no input changes, HDMI cec to auto turn on connected equipment etc.
A Google TV stick.or box will have maximum wife approval factor if you also install Netflix, Prime etc on it, install a custom launcher, and set the TV to auto start to HDMI.
I’ve been looking at the onn box 4k but need to verify Cec capability. I had a jailbroken fire stick back in the day, but it didn’t get the seal of approval so I’ve been gun shy trying something else.
