For this TV there are 4 steps. Together they switch off 19 things you do not need, and leave 17 services alone that the TV needs to work. Nothing is deleted, and every step can be undone. The list comes from owners who tested it on their own TVs; we have not re-tested it on yours.

What the first step does

Step 1: --- telemetry and analytics

Stops the TV reporting back to the maker and to advertisers.

"DAC" analytics uploader: channel watched, resolution, HDMI-CEC devices, viewing times, Ambilight config. Uploads to AWS Firehose/S3 and geolocates the public IP via ipinfo.io org.droidtv.candeebug
metrics collector running inside candeebug's process org.droidtv.gel
boot stats, remote keypress counts, panel/eMMC telemetry feeding the two above org.droidtv.usagelogger
Market Feedback Agent com.google.android.feedback
partner referrer / attribution com.google.android.partnersetup

The rest of the guide

Step 2: --- promoted content, storefronts and retail junk
Step 3: --- one-time helpers and unused services
Step 4: --- owner's explicit choices on this unit
What is left alone, the Mac and Windows files, the undo files and the testers' notes
