Why aren't TV's made to run on totally by the internet?

[EE_]

I been asking this question for a couple few years now. I don't see the need anymore for cable companies.

IMO, all TV's produced today should have an internet computer built-in to allow all stations and all internet content to be viewed from your remote...a remote with a key pad too.

You are able to watch anything through your tiny little iPhone now, but not a 60" TV set.
I know there are plug-ins to get internet on TV...how many people use them though?

The reason I believe this technology is lagging, is because the Zionist media owners don't want the content people are viewing on their computers to go mainstream.

Not everyone in the US searches all the content on the internet like we do.
Most hard working people still come home to put their feet up in front of the Fox News Zionist programming channel.

I'm sure plans are in motion to gain full control of internet content with selective censoring. Once they have this control, they will allow internet TV's to be born/sold.

The newest smart teevees are totally 'net compatible at least with respect to downloading movies and playing video games online, they just do not have the operating systems/graphic user interface at the same level as desktops, laptops, smart phones, and tablets yet.

Can I click on the David Duke channel or Press TV news from my couch?

Pretty sure my parents run their TV on the internet only. I will have to find out how they did it. I know they lost a lot of channels, but were able to get rid of the high cable TV costs. They also got rid of their home phone and switched over to magic jack. They lowered a lot of monthly costs by doing that and are quite happy with the results.

Sure, if you use your smart phone as your remote. Who* doesn't have a smart phone these days?? ???

*I don't have a smart ass phone, and the sewer pipe known as Time Warner cable will cut itself off to my abode in about 30 days because in order to have 'enhanced' cable one must install their 'buffer' (which actually degrades the signal to the point of the audio and video becoming choppy with pixels dropping out - I'm convinced that the only enhancement this new 'buffer' box [w/ it's own remote] of theirs adds is the ability to send data back more efficiently)

Why do you have to have a smart phone to access internet on your TV? Why can't the TV come with a remote for the TV to access it.

I don't have a smart phone.

Why do they need magic jack...don't they have cell phones?

I want just want a simple internet TV with a wireless key board.

They use magic jack because they've had the same landline phone number for over 30 years, and don't want to give it up. Everyone knows that number. They do have cell phones though.

I will find out what they did with their TV and the internet. I know it's free basically, just using their existing internet service which they were paying for anyway.

They probaby have a plug in adaptor that runs off their wifi.
I guess the question to ask them, is how they surf the internet from the couch...do they have a laptop computer sitting on the coffee table?

I know the cable companies are fighting this, I want to be able to pick and choose some cable channels too.
This merge between cable and internet should have happened already.

One of these days there will be NO TV or movie houses.....you will be enclosed in one room that will become your world by inter reaction with anyone else by means of what you see on the big wall.....you will be able to travel anywhere in the world as if you were there with the proper sounds and smell to go with it.......and after that? like the holographic room of the USS Enterprise.

The only ones that will do any actual work will be the "Tecnicians" that will keep the robots and machines running...but this will be only till the robots are able to do everything on their own.......it will be a new brave world.......if we are still around.

Fully-Internet-integrated Talmudvisions have a name, invented decades ago: Telescreens. A term George Orwell introduced to the world. Two-way Televisions.
