I once got myself a small projector. It ran on Android. I didn't want to connect it to my network. Unfortunately, an unsecured Wi-Fi hotspot would sometimes pop up nearby, which the damn thing would connect to in order to download ads and bother me with nonsense.
The workaround was to give it Wi-Fi, but block the internet connection in the router. The solution was to throw it away. Malicious little fuck.
