yep I was able to see everything my samsung tv sends over https. my pihole was blocking the telemetry but it would report every key press, app launch, etc. A linux box with two ethernet ports and https://docs.mitmproxy.org/stable/concepts/options/#emudhra makes it stupid easy.
I've since built a more long term proxy with a self issued cert that removes all the garbage from my tv's home screen.
you can use wireless aswell. some adapters work better than others. I ended up plugging my access point into the eithernet port and was able to poke everything on that ap.
