Sounds like you haven't watched a lot of free to air tv haha

[-] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 16 points 1 year ago

I can honestly say, apart from seeing it on on the background when visiting parents or similar, that I haven't watched free to air TV in maybe 15 years. Been streaming or downloading all that time.

I hardly watch it either. Just found it funny all the complaints above could be applied to what free to air tv has been doing for decades.

[-] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Agree with you completely.

Free to air is heavily regulated in my country if it had a fraction of the fraudulent grifter ads Google would be shut down

Ads in those are also regulated in civilised countries.

Luckily all that is prosecutable by Ofcom here so it very rarely happens.
