I've seen people suggest leaving a review for Android TV Core Services and calling Google directly (without mentioning a phone number). Has anyone found a good way to send feedback? Google crossed a red line by forcing ads onto hardware people already paid for - in some cases $2000+ for - and they need to be made aware of what a serious mistake this is. The fact that providing feedback is so opaque a process is yet another reason to distrust them.
Any suggestions welcome. Thanks!
UPDATE (11:35): I've found what appears to be an appropriate place: https://support.google.com/androidtv/troubleshooter/6125081, click on "Contact Us" in the upper-right corner, then request a phone call. Unlike the previous link, this is a general Android TV line, and they promised to send my feedback onward. Will update with any further info (like a place to send written feedback instead).
Note that if you're on mobile, the Contact Us option may not appear, so request the desktop version or use a laptop/desktop and look in the upper-right corner.
