The misunderstanding may be because televisions that support ATSC 3.0 also have internet connections. Everyone reading this has the internet.
The Internet is NOT a FCC requirement for 3.0. Some newer DVRs supporrting 3.0 do not require the internet. I can post links to review of these DVRs if anyone likes.

I agree. Your antennae is not transmitting back. ATSC 3.0 allows stations to digitally encrypt their signal. For these encrypted stations, you MUST have an internet connection in order to decrypt the station. It is via this internet connection that they are collecting data.
