    To make its Odyssey OLED displays more universal, Samsung equipped them with the Samsung Smart TV platform

    Fuck this. It’s enough all TVs nowadays are ruined with manufacturer’s bloatware riddled with telemetry and ads. We don’t need this crap in monitors too.

      What is the benefit of this? Surely whatever device you’re connecting to the monitor will already have all of the “smart” functionality.

        I wonder if it’s got tracking or spyware built into it? Seriously. I’m not joking. It would make sense if they want to monetize us further when they do it so often in the TV market.

      I have a Samsung “smart” TV. I keep it disconnected from the Internet entirely. If it connects it’s horribly slow to use, not to mention the data collection, etc… switching inputs would take 30 seconds. Infuriating.
