Dark Side of the Horse by Samson for November 27, 2014

This strip is right on target. I don’t WANT a “smart TV”. Their “smartness” lies in keeping you hooked in to marketers. I’ve read that some even track your watching for more efficiently directing ads at you.I just want a TV that I control. I don’t need internal wifi connections, nor do I need a microphone or camera. And I refuse to pay extra so that I can be more efficiently spied upon.

Sometimes the old ways are just better.

In Soviet America, TV watches you.

When you buy your new electronics, look for the “Endorsed by the American Ad Council label.” :-)

Horace must know that E_r^2=(m_0 c^2)^2+(pc)^2.

Never mind “smart TVs,” just give us smarter programs.
