I’m mostly sailing the high seas, using the tv as a giant monitor for the always-on laptop connected to it. I’m afraid of the 1984-esque “You must connect to the internet to continue using this TV” that might come after some time.

This is what I do. It stops it from auto updating and from phoning home, but still lets the individual apps function. Some of the apps don’t work, because they can’t update either, but if we get desperate, we just punch the TV through the pihole just long enough to update the individual app. It’s a reasonable middle ground.
