Comment on ‘Invasive, deceptive, and unlawful’: Texas says your TV is tracking you illegally, and is suing to stop the dreaded Automatic Content Recognition

I personally submitted Hisense’s ACR servers to a popular DNS adblock list that’s used by a lot of products.

And just like that, anyone with a VIDAA TV hiding behind a pi-hole went dark.

We should really make sure every TV gets checked.

I wonder how long it will take until they start using DoH and conveniently make the TV fail if it’s blocked…

  You’d have to block whatever DoH server it’s using. They usually fall back to regular DNS. I’ve found that a Chromecast will use Google DNS, but will fall back to LAN DNS when blocked.
