    I see this thrown around a lot.

    90% of us watch Netflix, Plex, YT TV or some other streaming service, how do I watch these with 4k quality without connecting to the Internet? That’s just an unrealistic request for 90% of TV users.

      If you have some technical knowhow, you can configure your router to let things like Netflix through, but not the rest of the OS. Or you can try your luck with PiHole or similar.

        I personally do have the capabilities I’m just pointing out this is unrealistic for 99% of TV watchers.

          You’re absolutely right. The better option is to get a TV without all that crap to begin such with.

          I’m just don’t saying it’s an option, that’s all.
