My question is: Can you block the IPs it’s phoning home to without breaking other TV functions, like OS/app updates, etc? Is there a list of IPs available for smart TVs specifically that keep the fingerprint from being received by the mfg?

Another aproach is to use a smart power outlet or surge protector like the ones on gearscouts.com to completely cut power to the TV when not watching - can’t phone home if it’s not even powered.
