LG is facing complaints from users who say unwanted ads are appearing on the company’s TVs and gaming monitors. The backlash centers on the growing frustration of seeing advertising on devices that people have already purchased for entertainment and gaming.

The issue appears to affect more than one product category, which has made the criticism more noticeable. Complaints tied to both LG televisions and LG gaming monitors suggest the concern is not limited to a single screen type, but to the broader user experience across LG hardware.

According to the brief report, even Microsoft is said to be irritated by LG’s advertising approach. That detail adds weight to the controversy, because it suggests the concern is not only coming from everyday users but is also attracting attention from a major technology company.

The reaction highlights a wider tension in the tech industry over how far companies should go in placing ads inside devices and software interfaces. For many customers, ads on screens they already own feel intrusive, especially when the products are meant for watching content or playing games without distractions.
