It's hitting my DNS server once every 2 seconds for a CDN domain, and every 12 seconds for a time domain. Before I blocked those DNS queries, it was attempting (and failing) to reach them on port 443.
I wonder if this still works: https://syntaxslinger.com/posts/tricking-samsung-tvs-into-thinking-they-have-internet/ or if it will fail due to an invalid HTTPS certificate.... I've not seen it fall back to port 80.
It's not really hurting anything the way it is though, so no big deal.

Oh, and in case anyone is interested in a TV that can be isolated from the internet yet integrated with Home Assistant, it's a Samsung QN32Q8FAAFXZA 32" TV.
