Watching My Neighbors Watch On-Demand TV

Posted by kdawson on Tuesday June 5, 2007 @10:11AM from the video-voyeurs dept.

Josh Levin, Slate Magazine writes "I have a magical box that allows me to watch other people watch TV — their movies, their sports, their cartoons, and their hour-long procedural dramas. And sometimes, usually around 11:30 on Friday nights, their soft-core pornography... I solved the mystery by consulting online message boards. At techie sites like AVS Forum, other voyeurs described their adventures in freeloading. I was intercepting video-on-demand channels through the power of my Samsung's QAM tuner."

As I read the summary on the front page, what should be the fortune in one of the boxes on the right?

What PROGRAM are they watching?

What program indeed?
