Over the last year or two, Google has filled Google TV with ads. The company started by showing ads for physical products in the For You tab. This was followed by full-screen auto-playing ads on the Google TV home screen. Making matters worse, Google started putting unskippable in-stream ads on free TV channels in June 2024.
