Samsung's smart TVs are inserting unwanted ads into users' own movies
A bit disappointing that a hacker community's first reaction is to position against smart TVs.<p>Smart TVs are awesome, we just need open source firmware for them in the same way that we have DDWRT/OpenWRT, XBMC and such.<p>Imagine the control scheme using a wiimote-style pointer, built-in webcam, quad core CPU and an API to give you access to your viewing habits, or interface with other smart devices around your home.<p>Right now, I turn on my ps4 and the channel doesn't change automatically and turn on game mode, why? I have a smart TV, it should know exactly what I want to do.<p>I do still think this is a bug, and not intended by Samsung. My tv doesn't seem to be affected by it.
