LG monitor asking about ad tracking preferences (x.com)

It. Is. Never. Enough.

You paid hundreds of dollars for a new monitor, but it doesn't matter. More ads, more profits.

I hate it.

Looks like it has smart functions, so same software as their TVs and you can actually just decline terms but some functions won't be available. It's not just one chcekbox so you can have some smart functions for some privacy. It's one of the better solutions. Anyway without internet there cannot be any tracking or ads so as a monitor it has just fancier osd.
