I outright told them it’s illegal, since they are unilaterally altering the terms of any T&C agreements when we started using the TV and materially interfering with our ownership and use of the TV we purchased. They didn’t care. I then sent it to our state attorney general and nothing happened.

You can likely sue them in dmall claims court. Many states let you file for a couple hundred dollars and will give you 3x damages if you win. The most likely outcome is they settle when theccourt date approaches or dont show and you win hy default.

  There was a guy in Texas who thought a big tobacco company would settle out without showing, but instead he got counter sued to the tune of millions. That man? Rusty Shackleford.
  
  There’s a good documentary about it.
