Yeah you are right, posting a youtube link was a bad call from op, even the rules on the forum frown on it. (First rule even!) A better approach would have been a summary or article with the important points.

And I have to be fair with you.... you guessed right. The video is too long, I had to skip a lot since they were repeating the same things over and over. Worse part is that, my awareness pitch, fell flat. I just checked the comments in the video, half of the section reads like this:

"I wont buy from LG anymore" "FuckLG" "Thas why i don't use tvs"

They didn't understand that the problem is bigger than one brand or device, that there's a whole system behind this. Nor the irony of being horrified of spying software while signed to google services.

Sigh.. maybe i shouldn't rush to be a devil's advocate anymore... it always bites me back.

Anyways, I still think is important to reach people where they are, and youtube videos should help, it has reach and its were the more oblivious guys are. Although, it would have been really really nice from them to host it in a less hostile platform for everyone else.

Now like you, i will end my rant here. Loved yours, even if it was a little spicy, which may have offended some people. But there was truth there, and for me at least, made me reconsider some things.

Cheers!
