Smart TVs taking snapshots of your screen and phoning home - Is there a list of IP ranges to block? (youtu.be)

My question is: Can you block the IPs it's phoning home to without breaking other TV functions, like OS/app updates, etc? Is there a list of IPs available for smart TVs specifically that keep the fingerprint from being received by the mfg?

Do they make 75" monitors? I see a few with touch, but those are $3000+.

It looks like NEC used to have a 70" monitor, but it was discontinued.

I've ran projectors at 100" for years. Only a few hundred.

I do not have a place to do a projector, if I replace my tv it needs to be another tv or monitor.
