There are projects to replace/root/modify the OS, unfortunately they tend to be about older models and the manufacturers continue changing things and making access more difficult.

LG and Samsung use Linux. Might be some fun to had analyzing any source code releases.

This would be great! Ifixit should show us how to remove or isolate the 5g/WiFi chip. Makes me wonder- is there a transparent faraday gage solution?

It would be quite nice if there were a single model out there that could be easily hacked and replaced with a speedy interface that does two things, switches HDMI inputs fast and volume control. (And turns off motion blur obviously.) Then maybe you could start throwing other stuff on there.
