You didn't vote with your wallet, you already bought the shield.

Then you bought another device with closed firmware from another company with their own ad service.



Sure I did. I stopped using the device that was displaying ads for services that I don’t subscribe to. Google will no longer receive ad revenue from me.

So far on my Apple TV I’ve only seen promos (“ads”) for movies/shows on services that I already subscribe to. That is within my personal comfort zone.

I wish that I could replace it with a little computer running Linux, but it’s difficult to find compatible hardware and I don’t have the time or patience to fuss around with it right now.


Are you talking about iAd?

That's gone, discontinued in 2016...
