Guerilla television: The White Dot (BR)

The Guardian (UK): Anti-TV Guerillas wield their new zapper

The last week of April is Turn Off Your (Motherfucking) Television Week. So turn the motherfucker off. Except for The Shield. And The Daily Show. And 24. And...alright, just leave it on.

From today, a group of anti-TV guerrillas, as scathing as the poet about the influence of the small screen on society, plans to liberate people from its irresistible grip. They will be using a recently launched gizmo called TV-B-Gone to take direct action against television sets in public places.

The glorified remote control, about the size of a key ring, will switch off most television sets within a 45ft radius within 60 seconds.

Would that some humans came with similar devices.
