Buyer beware: TV streaming “magic boxes” loaded with Chinese spyware

David Menzies of Rebel News: "When I asked customers if they would be interested in buying a magic box that would deliver a plethora of free TV and movies for a one-time fee of just a few hundred bucks, the consensus was an enthusiastic “yes”, that they would love to own such a device. But when asked if they would be fine with their computers being infected by spyware and malware (that is almost impossible to remove) as a direct consequence of using these boxes, buyer’s remorse suddenly took lease and these same consumers gave these boxes a thumbs-down."
