So, in part with how the nfl has left America and no longer enforce its own rules when the rule breakers show disrespect to America, how do "they" know if i am watching them on TV or listening to them on radio? Is there a loss in gain which requires a boost in signal strength (for TV)? Polls only? Or? Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

With broadcast (over the air) TV it would have to be a survey analysis like Nielsen (end user fills in a logbook) that projects a total. I would suspect that satellite or streaming services (DirecTv NetFlix) they can monitor not only what but how long without any input from the end user. ———- Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for thou art crunchy and taste good with catsup. | |||

That's why I don't even turn on MSNBC or other shit channels, even to see "the other side". I wont give them the ratings if they can tell from the digital cable box what you are watching Don't weep for the stupid, or you will be crying all day | |||

I have a favorites list on my Cable box set up to use when channel surfing. I have already removed two of those commie networks from the list so it skips right over them. I need to do a few more... Collecting dust. | |||

http://www.ineoquest.com The wife used to work here. They know EVERYTHING going on through your internet and cable. They can tell if the signal is good or bad at any moment for any channel at any address. It is supposedly scrubbed for personal data, but who knows. They can see what you are watching (with warnings on the exterior of some of the screening rooms saying you may be subject to viewing some pron). Some serious big brother stuff. The ratings people know plenty without polling. Clarior Hinc Honos BSA Dad, Cheer Dad | |||

Nielsen hooks up to the sound output on your tv and automatically logs what you are watching by the code coming through the audio out port. Any digital cable company knows everything you do on your TV but I don't know if they package viewing habits and sell it to advertisers. | |||
