Ask HN: Do you connect your TV to the internet directly?

Just curious if there is a compelling reason to do so that I'm unaware of.

Android TV has a pretty good UI to watch Netflix, YouTube, etc. When my son’s friend came over they had a lot of fun watching it

absolutely not, i dont need yet another device spying on me. i dont use any of the built in apps, i have an apple tv for that.

also tvs love to pump ads into the UI now, and i refuse to allow that
