One more documented controlled experiment. Does a factory reset actually clean the slate, or does it drop you straight into a privacy trap?

A smart TV displaying an "LG webOS / Initial Setup" screen. Glowing data streams featuring "ACR (Automatic Content Recognition)" and "Telemetry" icons flow out of the television directly into a cloud labeled "Internet".

Part 3 of Deshittification as a Service is live!

We analyze webOS 26’s active network sabotage mechanics—from cold-boot consent traps to selective socket murder when local telemetry blocks are detected.

A technical illustration showing network interference between a router and a smart TV. On the left, a monitor displays an OpenBSD router running a Packet Filter and Unbound DNS blocking "wiselg.com". On the right, a webOS 26 TV screen is encased in ice with a red mechanical clamp squeezing the Netflix app. Red labels on the TV read "COLD-BOOT WATCHDOG: CONSENT TRAP", "TELEMETRY BLOCK DETECTED", "TCP RST WIN=0", "GDPR ART. 7(4) VIOLATION", and "SELECTIVE SOCKET MURDER: ACR TARGET".

Hiding comments from blocked users on Steam forums with Ublock Origin

Steam has a similar problem as Discord, where comments from someone you blocked appear as a collapsed comment with an alluring "show" button, tempting the user into seeing, maybe out of […]

Block LG's tracking servers and WebOS retaliates by locking you out of the App Store.

In Part 2 of my Deshittification series, I expose a blatant GDPR Article 7(4) forced consent violation.

A conceptual illustration of a homelab network. A router running pf and Unbound connects to a glowing red 'Gatekeeper' padlock, which blocks a tangle of wires filled with eyes and 'AD' tracking icons. Clean cables run from the gatekeeper to a Smart TV, where app icons like Netflix are held hostage behind red chains and padlocks. A smartphone sits in the foreground.

Privacy toggles in Smart TV menus do almost nothing. To stop telemetry and evasive DNS fallbacks, you have to enforce honesty at the network edge.

A conceptual technical illustration showing an OpenBSD gateway filtering network traffic. On the left, a chaotic mess of dark cables filled with surveillance eye icons and "AD" tags enters a silver mini PC labeled "OpenBSD," showing diagrams for "pf Packet Filter" and "Unbound DNS." On the right, clean teal data streams emerge from the router to connect to a Smart TV running webOS and a docked smartphone running Netflix. Glowing light-blue airflow lines and a lung icon above the TV represent CPU performance relief and a responsive user interface.
