Location requirements – SYFY Review

App insists on location permissions to ‘obtain the local feed’. Really? You need GPS coordinates to know if I’m on the toilet or kitchen while watching?! IP address isn’t sufficient? My US cable subscription isn’t good enough? The arrogance is remarkable. To watch we need a cable subscription, an app that restricts usage, ads and more ads, and then, to monetize even more, you want to track every movement. Your shows aren’t that good. Now, I know this snarky review with neither get you to improve programming or change Big Brother location tracking. But hopefully it makes some admin chuckle and, maybe, just maybe, shines the tiniest of lights on the greedy executive who is thinking of the next monetization - might I discourage the anal sphincter measurement service. You could call it the Sucky Contrarian Indicator of Fudge Index (SciFi spelled correctly).
