Gregory's Server@alice_watson I'd be very curious how much of that can be blocked at the DNS level, given the relative proliferation of Pi-Hole. Still not a solution by any means, given the vast majority of TV owners don't and won't have access to such blocking, but I'm curious nonetheless.

 @xgranade I have a Pi-Hole set up to filter my network traffic at home, and it's glorious. I see almost zero ads on all my other devices, but some crap still comes through on my TV.  @alice_watson We use pi-hole as well, with its upstream set to a local DoH proxy so that our ISP can't read any DNS queries going across our network. We don't use a recursive provider, so the upstream from the DoH proxy is still able to see queries, but at least they're in the EU and so will have some stronger privacy protections. Really interesting that some of the TV ads get through, though. I wonder if that's the gravity lists not capturing that, or if they use a common domain to hide. |

This was also a solution that came into my mind. I think NextDNS has a dedicated filterlist for smartTVs
