Edit: I guess this post is free advertising for these shitters, so I will describe what I previously linked.

There is this TV you can get for free but it has a ads on screen constantly and it has a camera pointed at you to record your reactions to ads and to ensure you don't cover up the ad portion of the screen.

Guess your time is free too.

Time to tinker with expensive hardware given away free in an attempt to break what is making it free in the first place? You bet.

I'm sure that would be interesting, but if you have the skills for that, why not do something more productive? I don't mean to insult. Are you making YouTube teardown videos or something?

I can't just have fun? And I mean, if I succeed it could be useful to people who want but can't afford a TV but also don't want the bullshit baggage. What could be more productive than sabotaging capitalism?

I guess. Maybe since I don't know how to do that sort of thing it feels like it would take a lot longer than it would for you. All for sabotaging the man.
