    6 or 7 years here, no news or socials. I keep telling people the same thing, you find out about the important stuff real quick regardless. The rest is noise and rage bait.

    He is well aware. This is just another pathetic attempt at being handed a monopoly based on fear-mongering and protectionism.

    Indeed, and I kinda miss it. My first couple IT jobs were right in Central London and we would all religiously meet at the pub after work, along with hundreds from other companies …

    Don't be so naive. He only wants a monopoly and a massive IPO.

    They are lobbying hard for a monopoly, or duopoly at best, in AI, based on protectionism rather than merit.

    I have that setup for my home network regardless. And my TV is the original C1 OLED, nothing compared when I got it. I wouldn't buy LG today.

    They hardcode DNS servers into the TV. You need a firewall in front of the pihole intercepting that traffic, I use OpenWrt.

    Also don't agree with the optional policies, they can be unchecked if you already did. That disables a bunch of crap too.

    There is plenty of malware for Linux. The difference is that the OS won't install it for you.

    I have a pihole in front of my LG TV blocking nearly every DNS query it tries. I only allow a couple streaming apps I do use and see zero ads.

    Seriously, why use Windows in 2026? Such a hideous OS and ecosystem with endless malware, backdoors, and dark patterns.
