Trying to watch the game and do i really want to stare at this BS?

No google. I don’t want your data mining creep. But of course you’re going to make it difficult to remove your intrusion without breaking. I know it’s bad just by the fact that i am unable to remove the message. And there is a timer for how long you long press as proof that i know what i am doing when i decide to sell my soul.

Does anyone know how to get rid of this trash without actually trashing my tv?

      They absolutely do. You just have to get a commercial display.

      I got a new Samsung TV (consumer model) last year and I haven’t had any issues using my shield with it. The trick is don’t use the built in crap.

      Most TVs are dumb if you never hook them up to the Internet. I don’t allow my OLEDs on the Internet generally and simply use a different device to stream and do all the things (webOS is actually pretty cool but LG is obnoxious like this sometimes). Even if your TV is good enough, this shit happens anyway. At least if my shield gets obnoxious, I can replace it with a different device.

        Still gotta be careful since some manufacturers have started auto-connecting to open access points when they detect them.
