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

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?

Thank you! I'm pretty tech-literate but I am just dipping my toes into this stuff. I'll look at both of those.

I have SmartTube on my TV and NewPipe on my phone. I can't imagine life without them.
