I’ve done the same! It’s impossible to buy dumb TVs nowadays, but you can always prevent them from connecting to the network.

Chuck 'em in the garbage and get something that doesn’t break when you insist on privacy.
Fair enough.
Thank you for the detailed response! I’m going to give it a try! This will be a step up from OpenWRT on a cheap router, I’ll bet!
Can a device like this act as my router?
Unraid is a great option for anyone, but beginners in particular. It does, however, cost money and isn’t open source.
Sorry, the video takes too long to get to the subject it claims to be about.
Can you please elaborate? I’m curious to know.
Sponsorblock: For Wadsworth, for what it’s worth.
Also, you can host your own server: https://headscale.net/
Or, ya know, just reinstall right quick.

There are cheaper knockoffs that run the same software. For example: https://geekworm.com/
Decent older servers (e.g., Dell Poweredge) can be had off of Craigslist/FB Marketplace pretty cheaply (~$300-$400).
You can also achieve this with any VPN by using two Docker containers:
Set Gluetun up to connect to your VPN (they support a huge number of providers) and then set the Tailscale container to use the Gluetun’s network. Then, use that Tailscale container as your exit node.
You can also combine this with a self-hosted Headscale (https://github.com/juanfont/headscale) instance.
I don’t think that’s fair. Certainly some do. They’re not the ones that make the most noise, however.
Relevant Bible passage Matthew 19:21-22:
Jesus said to him, “If you wish to be complete, go and sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.” But when the young man heard this statement, he went away grieving; for he was one who owned much property.
This is the correct answer if privacy is your priority. They’re not particularly cheap, however.
