Take back your Samsung TV
Your Samsung TV can track what you watch. I made a guide to help you disable selected tracking, ads, ACR and unwanted voice features.
Your Samsung TV can track what you watch. I made a guide to help you use Codex/ChatGPT to disable selected tracking, ads, ACR and unwanted voice features.
I tested it on three of my own TVs: a 98-inch QN990C, an 85-inch QN900C and an 85-inch QN900A.
The guide includes the TV steps, prompts to copy into Codex, backups and recovery instructions. It also records what worked and which processes restarted.

Check your exact model before proceeding. These changes can damage your TV or affect warranty coverage, and they don’t guarantee every tracking feature is stopped.
