Here is how you disable it on all the TVs in the Law Suit

1. LG (webOS)

  • Settings > All Settings > General > System > Additional Settings > Toggle Live Plus to Off.
  • Settings > Support > Privacy & Terms > User Agreements > Uncheck Viewing Information and Personalized Advertising.
  • Settings > General > System > Additional Settings > Home Settings > Uncheck Home Promotion.

2. Samsung (Tizen OS)

  • Settings > Support > Terms & Privacy > Privacy Choices.
  • Select Viewing Information Services and uncheck the box to disable ACR.
  • Uncheck Interest-Based Advertisement Services.

3. Sony (Google TV / Android TV)

  • Settings > Initial Setup. Look for Samba Interactive TV and select Disable.
  • Settings > System > About > Legal Information > Ads > Toggle Opt out of Ads Personalization to On.
  • Optional: Go to Settings > Apps > See all apps > Samba Services Manager > Disable.

4. TCL & Hisense (Roku TV models)

  • Toggle Viewing Information Services or Automatic Content Recognition to Off.

The “Nuclear Option” for Monitors (Note: This turns off all Smart Features)

  • Go to Network Settings and “Forget” your Wi-Fi network.
  • If the TV isn’t on the internet, it can’t send the ACR “fingerprints” of your computer screen back to the manufacturer’s servers.
