LPT: If you are tired of ads on your Smart TV or apps, change your DNS settings to a provider that blocks ad-tracking at the network level.

Instead of trying to block ads on every individual device, you can set your router or the TV itself to use a DNS like AdGuard or similar. It’s a "set-it-and-forget-it" solution that works for many "Smart" home devices that don't allow traditional ad-blockers. This solves the problem of intrusive banner ads on your home screen without needing extra hardware.
