Can you provide a reference for this? While technically possible, I don’t think this has actually happened, and spreading misinformation is counter productive.
I have AdGuard running on the router as a preventative measure, and it’s an older Samsung Q65 that doesn’t have any confirmed 5g modules. I should probably block its MAC address for added security though.
Some have esims and 4/5g modules installed already for “telemetry”.
For real? You’ve got a source for that? Because that’s probably not cheap to do for continued use.
I worked with IoT devices with a “5g” radio. The company had to pay a cellular contract just like anybody else.
I HIGHLY doubt LG is going to pay for that.
Someday. Sounds crazy but someday it will be profitable to do it, like a Skynet rising

I’ve read that DNS level blocking often doesn’t stop this kind of telemetry because it goes directly to an IP without a DNS query involved.
Hey, good catch. I didn’t think of that.
