TVs are everywhere, in public place, streaming mind-numbing contents to whatever eyeballs they might capture. The TV-B-Gone is basically a universal remote that shuts off virtually any model of TV ever produced. There’s one catch: if you go to your favorite electronics store and shut down their wall of TVs, you might get in trouble. Until now. Here’s a perfect disguise for the TV-B-Gone: an old iPod! You’ll be able to walk around and do everyone a favor without risking getting cought!

Note that it’s not always a good idea to turn off every TV you encounter: Airports, Train Stations and Sports Bars (especially during the big game) aren’t good targets. Please use them liberally around the holiday period!
