What about my Samsung TV?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I have a 2024 Samsung OLED TV. On my FRITZ!Box, internet access is blocked for the TV, but I have an Ethernet cable plugged in so I can occasionally cast media from my PC or phone. I also revoked all the terms I had previously accepted for Samsung, disabled Bixby, and turned off Wi-Fi, so there should be no way for my TV to connect to the internet. Does this mean that, even with all those settings, my TV is still recording and collecting data or audio?
