[QUOTE="SpiderWeb, post: 999098, member: 88686"] I changed the DNS servers on my smart TV to nextDNS. It's amazing how much they phone back. It's not the ads for me on my LG OLED. It's trackers. So. much. data. All while it's just showing you one pretty frame after another. Everything is tracked, what I search for, what channel I'm on, whenever I change channels, what app I'm using, everything. It's ridiculous and clear this has become a big source of income for TV manufacturers. [/QUOTE]
