Your cable or sat dish box reports everything you tune to.
I have neither.
Ahhh...no they don’t.
Having worked in the business for 20 years, I can assure you that the only thing the executives give a shit about is your bill.
If there are two-way boxes hooked up to a ratings terminal the customer knows it and has signed away all of their privacy rights. And even then, the cable company does not see what they are watching.
Your paranoia is showing.
Yep, this is better:
Unless you’re in a Nielsen family, your viewing never has any effect on TV ratings OR viewership.
Never.
Any.
