Would it not make sense for them to? Since they make budget televisions, they have to subsidise the cost somehow.
Either that, or because they’re so budget, you’d expect them to cheap out on the electronics and not bother with anything that sophisticated compared to a bare-minimum chip.
I also stumbled across a diagram lately that showed how this data eventually flowed into displaying ads for medical products. The size of this platform behind the scenes would be huge.

From the article it appears to be some technical experiment in Spain they were too disorganised or lazy to remove from the ROM.
