The top 2/3 of the Home Screen is ads. A big Sponsored tile plus a row of “Top picks for you” which includes sponsored content.

They also store your watch data.

For me when I press home the top 2/3 is the show I'm watching, bottom is my row of apps. The only ads I see are 'recommended apps' filling the start of the LG content store which is the default tab. But then I just hit the search icon and can pick the app I want.
