  You can still connect it to your LAN without giving it internet access.

    Or I don’t and I have no worries as I trust NOTHING.

      I know that a Samsung teevee disconnected from the internet will try and use another appliances internet connection if it can. Gotta imagine this is possible in other devices, too.

        Last year I started maintaining a MAC address whitelist on the router: if I haven’t added it, it doesn’t get in or go out. No way in hell I’m putting any household appliance on the allowed list.

        Can you share more info on this? I’m interested in the technical aspect how this is done, specifically which devices it uses?

        For instance, say, a smart speaker, may have Bluetooth and WiFi, but I’m not sure any halfway comprehensive network stack I’d even implemented that could be used as a proxy, let alone autonomously remotely reconfigured to do so.
