I have an LG OLED TV

 

 

My LG TV wont let me update my Britbox app without accepting LG Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.

I don't want to accept these conditions without reading them. There doesn't appear to be the ability to read them on the TV and only accept the terms that I am comfortable with.
The autocratic nature of LG is so frustrating to me as a user.
I will NOT be recommending this product to any of my friends and will have to resort to using apps that can't be updated.

      PreCentral: HP updates webOS Developer Center, adds reporting graphs and app privacy policies
      By News Reporter
      HP updated the webOS Developer Center today to add in sales reporting graphs, a move presumably brought on or sped up by the planned
      link hidden, please login to view last month, as well as adding more compliance with state and federal laws requiring developers to provide privacy policies when their apps access certain user data which on iOS and Android over the past few months. The App Catalog was updated in weeks prior to allow users to see the app's privacy policy but developers were unable to actually add one in until this past weekend. This new functionality allows a developer to provide a privacy policy for an individual app or a company-wide policy. This should add a bit of reassurance to every user knowing that they should soon see a privacy policy for most, if not all, apps that are required to provide one .
      The other major update of the day is the addition of sales data in the form of graphs. Earlier today the data was available but many a developer tweeted back to the developer relations team to let them know the displayed numbers were horribly off. I personally noted a nearly twenty-fold increase in numbers under "active users" versus actual download numbers.
      This is a welcome change, of course, because developers have been asking for an integrated solution for some time now. This does not yet not replace Metrix or true analytics systems, however, because while it does provide some information such as active users and download statistics it falls short of providing detailed user data such as device type, the version of webOS being used, screen resolution, and the language of the users. That data is critical to developers and we hope HP adds at least some of it in to the developer portal, even if it requires an extra Enyo or Mojo library be added to the app.

      PreCentral: HP signs onto app privacy disclosure agreement
      By News Reporter
      It didn't take long for the big privacy brouhaha to turn out some results, eh? Today the State of California announced that they have brokered an agreement with Amazon, Apple, Google, HP, Microsoft, and Research In Motion regarding the disclosure of privacy policies in mobile apps. The agreement is meant to allow customers to check out an app's privacy policy before downloading an app, and if the app doesn't comply with the stated privacy policy, the developer could be prosecuted under California law.
      How exactly HP and the others will implement this policy is unclear at this point. While Google currently prompts an app buyer to confirm their agreement to privacy policies for individual apps (this app can access your contacts, photos, etc), the only exception that the webOS App Catalog currently calls out is for location services. The way the agreement is worded, HP, Apple, and the other companies not currently as aggressive in privacy clearance as Google would be able to provide a link to an app's privacy policy "in a consistent location" within the apps' store listing.
      While HP hasn't had to endure as much of a media firestorm as Apple has with unintentional location tracking and
      link hidden, please login to view, customers should remain always vigilant. The problem is that vigilance with regards to app privacy is that how an app works behind the scenes is not a clear and understandable thing to most users. While plenty of outrage was directed at Apple and developers over the failure to disclose contact uploading, the "why" for these apps uploading contacts wasn't fully explored, nor the security of that information once it's in the developer's hands. Either way, we're glad to see that this issue has been addressed, even if by just the state of California (as usual they've done their best to preempt the federal government while Congress dillies around with lawyer-driven hearings on the matter).
