Clarification: after a bit of research it seems the olfactory section pertains to CCPA California law, many places have olfactory in the privacy policy because it is required by the law. I can't believe we reached a point where we have to put olfactory in the privacy policy, but then again it won't be long before Smell-O-Vision becomes reality.

They removed it, archived here: https://archive.ph/YYBuJ

Also have a California ip you get a different privacy policy.

my roku TV felt my wrath because it dared to show me a banner ad while I was in the middle of a game.

i promptly disabled internet on it completely. now it's a dumb TV. and my life is much better.

I want to recommend that you change your WiFi password. Even though you disabled the internet, it may still phone home.

oh it's a relief that we have recently changed it. the bastard roku is completely locked out.

Better yet, tear the wifi antenna off the board, can't connect to wifi without any antenna, no matter how hard you try.

i’d rather masturbate with a cheese grater than own a “smart” tv….

We'll have fun all TV's are smart TVs.

That isn’t true

Samsung QBR line is an example of a dumb tv

Yep disabled Internet and I cast video from my phone to the TV so I can control what appears on the screen.
