I’m frankly flabbergasted to not see the US on the list.
My TV and computer monitor are deny-listed on my router, and I’m angry that I even have to do that.
Why are they even connected to your router in the first place?
Not OP but, my TV has a local api. I connected it to my network so I can control it via home assistant. That can be one reason why. Of course, its also on a VLAN that has no access to the WAN.
Your monitor is “smart”?
Yes, tragically. Don’t buy a Samsung Odyssey monitor like I did. It takes 7 button presses to change the input and there’s a Disney+, Netflix, and Prime Video dedicated buttons on the remote.
I’m looking to “down”-grade ASAP.
Lmao “smart” TVs
The Sony Bravia I have now is the first Android device I have ever owned. It is also, coincidentally, the first TV I have had to hard reboot on a regular basis because the HDMI stack keeps crashing.
I have never and will never allow this thing to go online.
If you factory reset your Bravia and then decline all the Google features (don’t sign in, etc.) it’s about as close to a dumb TV as you can get these days.
I have a Bravia, and the picture is second to none. Better than any other I’ve seen, including other OLEDs…
But holy shit is the software slow. Fuck “smart” TVs
I guess nothing’s changed then haha. I have a 2015 LCD Bravia. No longer my main TV, but it’s been awesome.
But the delay between turning it on and being able to switch inputs… Jesus.
