I can see where this offer would appeal to some people in some circumstances. (Not me.) At least they're being reasonably up front about what the deal is. Which is better than a whole lot of bigger name companies who track you, spy on you, and monetize you, all without your knowledge or consent. Just an an example, is Telly overall worse than the Amazon Dot or Echo devices (which are also subsidized)? But, I appreciate Mouse Print for the info on Telly.
