For those who use piHole or other network wide ad blocking, I've compiled a list of servers to block: https://factory-reset.com/wiki/Samsung_Telemetry_Servers

Typically I would suggest not connecting your TV to any sort of internet connection - firmware updates don't typically tend to add or fix much on these devices. If you really have an issue, update the firmware, factory reset and then disable wifi / unplug ethernet.




blocking like that works for now, but what's the plan for when they switch to DNS-over-HTTP?

and host everything on ephemeral AWS addresses?


We go from pi-hole to enterprise grade firewalls and proxies and separation of nnetworks. That's my plan anyway.


Maybe we need to whitelist ip:s instead?

Imagine a browser extension that whitelist the ip of the site you go to in the address bar for like 30 minutes in cooperation with the router.

All other ip traffic is blocked.
