It. Is. Never. Enough.

You paid hundreds of dollars for a new monitor, but it doesn’t matter. More ads, more profits.

I hate it.

      It’s hooked to a Mac, so most likely on Thunderbolt which would allow it internet access with the video feed. So it’s possible they didn’t have a choice. (This isn’t limited to Mac though)

        So now we just need a MAC filter with a wild card at the firewall?

        No more LG products in this house.

          Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter and then an HDMI cable would do that, but more things to add.

      Why on earth buy a “smart” monitor. It is a computer. There is a smart device attached by definition.
