Smart TVs taking snapshots of your screen and phoning home - Is there a list of IP ranges to block? (youtu.be)

My question is: Can you block the IPs it's phoning home to without breaking other TV functions, like OS/app updates, etc? Is there a list of IPs available for smart TVs specifically that keep the fingerprint from being received by the mfg?

That used to be my solution, too. Sadly Roku don't seem to be any better for privacy, anymore.
