Earlier this month we reported on rumors about a startup company that planned to offer a free television to consumers in the US that would be supported by ads shown on a second screen. Now that startup has officially revealed itself and has started taking reservations from the public for that free TV. The company is now officially called Telly, and its website is live with renders of that 55-inch free TV. The second screen is located at the bottom of the device, below a sound bar. The site says: "Telly’s integrated Smart Screen will bring new experiences to your living room like video calling, instant news and sports updates, video games, a fitness studio and so much more. And, it only gets smarter over time with frequent meaningful updates unlocking even more of its power"

I just signed up for this, it takes about 10 minutes and you have to use a mobile phone.

Hold it right there, hoss. If it's sounds too good to be true, blah blah and etc.

Double-screen ‘free’ TV will show you ads, even when not in use

Telly is free, but with all the data tracking, you should get paid to use it.

What would you be willing to do for a free TV? If the answer is hand over information about what you watch, search for, and listen to on that TV and for how long, how much money your household makes, what food and brands you like, and your race and be subject to on-screen ads at any time, then Telly's got the deal for you.
