My Apple TV, if you choose to make it available to devices nearby (can be turned off entirely), still requires a random code, which it displays on a connection attempt from an unknown device, to be entered on the connecting device.
It’s come in handy, because our neighbors sometimes accidentally choose our Apple TV instead of theirs apparently. The only thing that happens on our side is that the TV turns on and displays the code, but our neighbors don’t see the code and likely realize their mistake then.
