For those with similar problems, use pihole dns to effectively block all that bullshit

Also, do NOT buy a Samsung TV, it's the worst offender of them all. Nothing but bad experiences with itl

Don't buy Samsung anything. Their hardware is junk. They used to be okay, but they decided years ago that they want to be an advertising company, not a hardware company, so they push cheap crap that is used solely as data harvesting and ad delivery devices. Even their home appliances spy on you and break down a few years later.

I dont have that experience with my samsung phone.

But i appreciate that you may be exaggerating when you say "samsung anything."

This galaxy fold 3 might be the best phone I've ever used, and im not being advertised at all really. The hardware is/was at launch some of the best you could get and it would be disingenuous to say that samsung are the only company out there harvesting user data. Thats all tech companies really.

Same here. I have the flip 4 z and it's been great! And before this I had the galaxy note 20 and the galaxy note 4. Both fantastic phones. I do miss having the stylis but I didn't want to get a fold.
