Trying to watch the game and do i really want to stare at this BS?

No google. I don't want your data mining creep. But of course you're going to make it difficult to remove your intrusion without breaking. I know it's bad just by the fact that i am unable to remove the message. And there is a timer for how long you long press as proof that i know what i am doing when i decide to sell my soul.

Does anyone know how to get rid of this trash without actually trashing my tv?

use your tv as a pc (e.g. raspi) screen and let the pc run everything.

this is the simplest solution. make sure to reset and turn off all connectivity on the tv too.

Unfortunately that doesn't always work. For example on linux there are not high-quality DRMs available so streaming platforms are stuck at 480p/720p, forget your 4k
