Russians: We had a nuclear incident

Americans: it must be really bad then

Russians: We never said it's bad

Americans: Listen, if it was not bad, you wouldn't even admit you had a nuclear incident.

Many routers have a functionality to create a guest wifi. These usually run on a separate VLAN so that it can't access other devices on the network. After creating this guest wifi, you have manually disable internet access on this but keep the wifi on.

Unfortunately the process varies between router to router.

Good point. We can have a honeypot wifi. Check my other comment in the thread.

I think for the TVs internal wifi, it's better to create a honeypot Wi-Fi exclusively for it, or a VLAN. It will constantly try to send data and fail. If we don't let it connect to anything, the TV might start sniffing for other open networks.

TV: mamma mia!

but the smart fridge in your upstairs neighbor’s kitchen could still be helping with smuggling your data out

I can understand that if you have a Samsung TV and a Samsung fridge, they can talk with each other. But will it work if you have a fridge from a different OEM? (I'm assuming the OEMs haven't formed a cartel for illegal data smuggling)

This is why you need to do DNS hijacking to handle hardcoded DNS requests.

Sorry for being paranoid but can the TV piggyback the connection used by the the streaming device/android box to send data back to the TV OEM?
