[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 58943, post: 713250"] Run a Pi-Hole on your network, there are curated blacklists to block DNS to some TV manufacturers without breaking TV functionality. Roku, Sticks, and other stuff are effectively neutralized for spying with other lists on Pi-Hole. I use Samsung devices and use a curated Samsung blacklist on my Pi-Hole. Samsung is WAY overly chatty so I consider it essential. [URL]https://v.firebog.net/hosts/static/SamsungSmart.txt[/URL] Good discussion here on blocks for many 'smart' devices that stop telemetry/spying but don't break functionality.
