Roku has patented a way to show ads over anything you plug into your TV
(arstechnica.com)
I am on board for this.
Patent it and no one else can do it.
Then if you do get or have a Roku TV, just don't add the wifi to your TV. (I know this won't work for the sticks, but for the cheap TV, just don't add that to the wifi)
I know that defeats the point of a smart TV but its a lot cheaper than other screens.
Companies can use it without much trouble. They just need to licence it
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
