Basically, you buy this box for your TV that hooks up to the internet when you see and ad you hit a button that says ~OH NO!~ and it sends the station, time etc to the central database. From all the people doing this the database is able to cut out ads for other people recording the show. You get points
for hitting the ~OH NO!~ button at the right time and you redeem the points for advert free recordings.

The 'corectness' of your vote would be based on how
