Its an old LG, but given the recent light on the lengths they'll go to spy on us, I figured this guy was better off without any ability to even connect wirelessly. Don't know if the Ethernet still works but I plan on keeping my TVs as dumb as possible, HDMI only.

If you're wondering how to open lg TVs you just have to remove all the screws then start pulling open at the bottom and open the clips going up. With the TV face down on a soft surface just keep pulling on the back case from the bottom, it'll take some effort to pop open. The top edge folds open more like a hidge than clips.

    According the terms of service his payment is for the use of the device according to manufacturer stated use-cases and any misuse or changes to the components negates the right to use and opens him to civil liability /s

    I'm so glad they are going after companies like Playstation over the use of "purchase" and "buy". These companies have perverted this term, even Steam is no exception.

    If they win this against digital goods, it goes towards the goal of fleshing out a minimum expectation of these terms. And companies can't weasel out of their anti-consumer practices without clearly revealing to the the layman how evil they have become.
