I do have a LG TV and I did connect it to the internet a long time ago. Im super annoyed at how they push updates in a way they try to make you press OK as you were doing something else.

Anyway, after accidentally triggering one, I turned the TV off interrupting it.

Now it just prompts me to continue it, to which I say no. It doesnt seem to be able to move beyond this now, so I've kind of locked it into where it is for now.
