I know people prefer to complain instead of act, but what is something people don't like but has an alternative?

Fellow Sony Smart tv owner here. Whatever that google tv os thing is, it phones home like crazy. And with my Pihole enabled on the network some of the tv functionality doesn't work. I just banned it's MAC address from my network at the router and don't use it's "smart" features.

I did use pihole to block it. Sadly, not everyone have the technical knowledge to do so.

That’s why I’d recommend apple products even though they’re not that great.
