This seems out of character. Is Paxton looking for a bribe?

I was going to say, "at last, something good out of Texas". Maybe you're on to something?

"All of the big TV makers" except Vizio which is owned by Walmart, of course, who happens to do ACR and ad targeting:

> In August 2015, Vizio acquired Cognitive Media Networks, Inc, a provider of automatic content recognition (ACR). Cognitive Media Networks was subsequently renamed Inscape Data. Inscape functioned as an independent entity until the end of 2020, when it was combined with Vizio Ads and SmartCast; the three divisions combining to operate as a single unit.[1]
