as the parent poster said, that works until they bury it so hard that you can't find it, or that it can't be removed without impacting service.

all LG needs to do is put the connection inline to something important like responding to your remote control or changing channels. rip it out and it won't work anymore. LG then curses you for voiding the warranty and tells you go to go hell when you complain.

it needs a law.
