So the next solution is to let it connect to your network but then block it at the firewall. That way you have full control over what it sees.

It is a dumb arms race between consumers and the devices they purchased

Would this make them useful to side load your own firmware to them? This “exploit” could make these into a hobbyist’s dream

I think I am using the wolf launcher? I can’t check right now, but I set it up a long time ago and then forgot about it.

I haven’t had any problems with it, I have both a tube and a shield pro and the white circle button works great on both.

There might also be a button remapper that you can get if you want the Netflix button to be a mute or something.

I have a ShieldTV plugged into mine and it has been great. You can install a new Launcher to have full control of what you see and it works great. I pretty much just use it for Jellyfin and YouTube now, but in the past have had all of the streaming services at one time or another.

I feel like they said private servers for “Minecraft” when they meant “Warcraft”. Not that I agree with them, but at least pirate wow servers make sense to be against.

My 2012 Toyota has an ‘app’ that I maybe tried once over ten years ago but haven’t used since. This is nothing new. It is called “Toyota Entune”
