This is a real "privacy as a luxury product" dilemma: you can get a great 55-inch inch TV for $500, but it's full of ads that subsidize the price over time and create stable revenue for the manufacturers. Would you buy a dumb TV with the same specs for $1500? — PolitiTweet.org

The silly Samsung TV malware story has people asking why they can't just buy dumb TVs anymore, which I reported on in January: they would be far more expensive than Smart TVs, which are layered with ads and promotions that discount the price. https://t.co/8NXEd2uOkl — PolitiTweet.org

@bergmayer I'm sure it's a mix -- easy to add the OS, get to market features and offer lower price with stable revenue curve over time. It's a win for everything except privacy and security :( — PolitiTweet.org
