Mine connects through pihole with all LG domains blocked. I'm not getting any update request, notifications or anything. Just Netflix.
Obligatory pihole doesn't block anything if they use their own dns. You can probably force all port 53 traffic through pihole if you have a decent router though.
Thanks for the reminder.
Blocking all DNS other than PiHole is a great thing to do.
Just setup mine a week ago. Already up to 28% blocked, and no ads on the smart TV (which makes it a little faster)
You can.
Source; I’ve done it. Don’t forget to redirect/block DNS over HTTPS as well. Usually port 853.
