Samsung smart telly plus pihole here. About 20 percent of requests made by stuff on my network is blocked by the pihole, and then, the majority of that is Samsung. What I really don't understand is the value attributed to the advertising / data mining. Facebook thinks I like bikes, so I get endless adverts for luminous Spandex. I can assure you the combination of 16 stone of electrical engineer/pc nerd is not a good one with it. Data mining is overrated. Try producing knowledge, not data.
