On my TCL TV, you have to connect it to read the Google policies you are agreeing to. If you don't, you agree to policies unread.

Thankfully, the blast radius of this is nothing without connectivity.

If I don't connect to the internet ever, my agreement to Google policies is probably a moot point.

If it has an Ethernet port I would use that then unplug it. It still gets to phone home once but you don't have to worry about it maliciously saving your Wi-Fi password for later

You can create a guest wifi with temporary password, I do that when I need to connect devices that might store the password like kindle or such.

But it lets you continue without reading them? There's a lot of questionable terms of service rules but this one has to be unenforcable.

You must check a checkbox in agreement to continue. To read the policies one agrees to, an internet connection is required. You may check the checkbox without reading.

As far as I have found from a lot of menu spelunking, this agreement is irrevocable. If I ever go online, it will be used.

That's the kind of thing that doesn't always hold up in court.
