Not sure if the 2022 models have changed but I have the flagship 20/21 Vizio and it works 100% fine with no internet connection. I haven't ever accepted the EULA so even with a network connection it displays no ads or obnoxious bloatware.
It's dumb but the best option ATM is to buy the best TV for the money and just use it with an Nvidia Shield. When TVs start locking down basic functions behind EULAs and/or use built-in cellular connections then we'll have a huge issue.
