I just barely had to go get a new phone because my Note20 broke. Was hoping they'd have another in stock but of course not. That's waaaaaay to outdated ๐ so I got the s23 or whatever. We moved all my data from my old phone to my new one. Once it updated everything I had 12 "new" apps and games installed. Wtf. Deleted most, but some are so damn hidden and protected. Samsung truly makes you know you don't own your own device.
I was reading an article about how LG wants to do the same thing with running ads and subscriptions for their smart devices and how this will grow their annual revenue to like 70 billion.
We're sinking into some dystopian shit where you are supposed to never own anything anymore.
Which devices? TV's maybe?
LG got out of the smartphone gig
Stop buying them. Samsung has been doing this for decades but people keep fucking buying them. As long as you keep buying them, they will continue doing this.
There are a handful of phones that don't come loaded with a littany of shitty bloatware. None of the shitty YouTube reviewers will tell you which ones they are.
I got a Pixel and it had very little bloatware. Then I installed GrapheneOS and that removed even more.
