What do you mean? Obviously consuming too much media, or consuming anything too much of it is not good, but how does that negate concerns about inadvertently inviting for-profit corporations to your breakfast and every intimate conversation at home?

Those are completely unrelated concerns.

I fully share your sentiment, someone buying a tv specifically so the kids don't let their brains rest during a 15 min breakfast seems insane to me. That said I guess better they watch without spyware than with..

Yeah, most people own a TV but would be better off without it.
