Oh damn, that's a long video... since we already have a TV I guess I won't be watching the entire thing.
I guess they could do that if they included a wireless modem in the TV. That would be kind of crazy though - companies don't make that much money off harvesting user data like this, so paying for a mobile connection would be surprising to me.
