The problem is the logic in targeting ads at you, look at youtube recommendations. "Why the fuck is PewDiePie a recommended video? Because I watch a game trailer of GTA5?!" (or some shit like that). Just because I watch the Big Bang Theory doesn't mean I have a propensity for comic book stores, eating take out food every night, or going to ComicCon.I don't have an issue with targeted ads. I want to hear about Microcenter selling XYZ for $$ off or whatever, I sure as hell don't care about Chanel perfume.
Yeah it's possible, it's a matter of where do you draw the line, how much info is Roku able to pull from my TV through the HDMI port, etc.? The reality is I don't really care if they target ads on me, unless like mentioned above there's nothing porn related because I spent a little too much time on the Tropicana Best Booty Competition at 2 in the morning when my wife and kid was asleep.Same here, but it is possible Roku has collaborated with television manufacturers to provide them with the data. It would be a source of revenue for them. Wait a second, my tinfoil hat has slipped down over my eyes.
