Welcome to Linux. It works great as a media center instead of your ad-ridden smart TV as well.
If the Pihole is catching and blocking it, it is possible to have it trigger a script that for example registers a push notification. Since they have a Pihole, they could also run a self-hosted push notification service on the same device if they don't want to use the Google or Apple Push notification systems.
Switch instance to programming.Dev. they hide all politics and porn communities from "all" for you unless you subscribe to them.
It is the norm right now already.
The only way out is specifically buying only products that don't do this shit, or ones that have been jailbroken and run open source software.
But the very best way to stop it all for good is to kill online advertisement. Online advertisement is the number one reason companies want your data to begin with. Go to your grandma's house, install adblock origin and sponsorblock.

Donate to open source projects, brag to your friends how your apps have no ads and no tracking.
Fight for right to privacy and right to repair. Stop using google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Meta.

Use grapheneOS, LineageOS, CalyxOS instead of basic Android.
As for home systems like security cameras, I suggest following the ultimate open source guide by Louis Rossmann.

Don't get too hung up on their license. It prevents other businesses from taking their source code and taking over the space with a for profit application. It is 99% as good as FOSS.
