==Technical implementation==
The advertisements are delivered through Samsung's existing Tizen operating system infrastructure, utilizing domains including:<ref>{{cite web |url=https://gist.github.com/wassname/b594c63222f9e4c83ea23c818440901b |title=Samsung Smart-TV Blocklist Adlist (for PiHole) |website=GitHub |date=2025-09-18 |access-date=2025-09-19}}</ref>

*config.samsungads.com
*ads.samsungacr.com
*samsungcloudsolution.com
*events.samsungads.com
*log-config.samsungacr.com
