your cable provider knows when your television is on. They can also tell what channel is on and how long you have been watching it.
 
About 25,000 people in the US are whats known as a Nielson viewer. There is an estimated 307 million people in the US. So one person represents hundreds of thousands which is really not adequate. Nielson is a horrible system and travesty of how lame our systems are. Many superb shows that were loved and watched by many are now cancelled because of this deeply flawed system.
They basically run all of television. They have the television world swinging from their nuts.
