storing an identifier of a second content-presentation device of the group of content-presentation devices into a block list, wherein the second content-presentation device and the at least one content-presentation device have a common attribute; and

preventing the second content-presentation device of the group of content-presentation devices from carrying out a second future content-modification operation based on the identifier.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

reporting, in response to the user action rate satisfying the threshold condition compared to the baseline rate, a common content-presentation device attribute of the group of content-presentation devices to a testing module.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , further comprising:

allowing the group of content-presentation devices to perform future content-modification operations in response to one or more issues causing the one or more content-presentation devices of a group of content-presentation devices to adjust volumes or access menus being resolved.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining that the one or more content-presentation devices of the group of content-presentation devices access menus based on fingerprint data.

8. A system comprising:

one or more memories;

at least one processor each coupled to at least one of the memories and configured to perform operations comprising:

determining a user action rate between a number of content-modification operations during which one or more content-presentation devices of a group of content-presentation devices adjust volumes or access menus and a number of content-modification operations executed by the group of content-presentation devices, wherein the content-modification operations executed by the group of content-presentation devices comprise presenting replacement content segments in place of modifiable content segments; and

preventing, in response to the user action rate satisfying a threshold condition compared to a baseline rate, at least one content-presentation device of the group of content-presentation devices from carrying out a future content-modification operation.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the preventing the at least one content-presentation device of the group of content-presentation devices from carrying out the future content-modification operation comprises:

transmitting an instruction to the at least one content-presentation device,

wherein the instruction causes the at least one content-presentation device to forgo carrying out the future content-modification operation.

10. The system of claim 8 , wherein the preventing the at least one content-presentation device of the group of content-presentation devices from carrying out the future content-modification operation comprises:

receiving a request for the replacement content segments from the at least one content-presentation device; and

refraining from responding to the request.

11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:

storing an identifier of a second content-presentation device of the group of content-presentation devices into a block list, wherein the second content-presentation device and the at least one content-presentation device have a common attribute; and

preventing the second content-presentation device of the group of content-presentation devices from carrying out a second future content-modification operation based on the identifier.

12. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:

reporting, in response to the user action rate satisfying the threshold condition compared to the baseline rate, a common content-presentation device attribute of the group of content-presentation devices to a testing module.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the operations further comprise:

allowing the group of content-presentation devices to perform future content-modification operations in response to one or more issues causing the one or more content-presentation devices of a group of content-presentation devices to adjust volumes or access menus being resolved.

14. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:

determining that the one or more content-presentation devices of the group of content-presentation devices access menus based on fingerprint data.

15. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by at least one computing device, cause the at least one computing device to perform operations comprising:

determining a user action rate between a number of content-modification operations during which one or more content-presentation devices of a group of content-presentation devices adjust volumes or access menus and a number of content-modification operations executed by the group of content-presentation devices, wherein the content-modification operations executed by the group of content-presentation devices comprise presenting replacement content segments in place of modifiable content segments; and

preventing, in response to the user action rate satisfying a threshold condition compared to a baseline rate, at least one content-presentation device of the group of content-presentation devices from carrying out a future content-modification operation.

16. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the preventing the at least one content-presentation device of the group of content-presentation devices from carrying out the future content-modification operation comprises:

transmitting an instruction to the at least one content-presentation device,

wherein the instruction causes the at least one content-presentation device to forgo carrying out the future content-modification operation.

17. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the preventing the at least one content-presentation device of the group of content-presentation devices from carrying out the future content-modification operation comprises:

receiving a request for the replacement content segments from the at least one content-presentation device; and

refraining from responding to the request.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise:
