Okay, so strike Hisense products from the list of brand I'll ever buy from
The list is getting pretty big.
This is why, for years, I've been trying to point out that "if you don't like it, just don't buy it" isn't good enough. Boycotts aren't enough; we have to force the law to change to prohibit the abusive corporate behavior.
Boycotts only work in competitive markets where there is real differentiation between the choices.
At this rate it is easier to do a whitelist than a blacklist
Yeah
It's going to get really interesting to find a new TV once I want to buy one.

You could try the ones storefronts use as displays. A bit pricey, but they have to be as dumb as possible for what they usually do.
