C- Chip

Every one know that TV's now a days have V-Chips in them. This allows parents to block programing that's rate PG-13, PG-17, MA, etc. Great idea as long as you don't have a kid who is even a bit savy who will crack it. But I digress.

I would like to create something else. The C-Chip. What is it? its a chip that allows you block comericals. I am sick of seeing comericals for 'Male Enhancment', or for weight loss, Don't want to buy some over priced infomercial product, and I am sick and tired of the stuipd credit report crap.

How would it work? many ways. Best case I would want each comerical to have certin data attached to it. Company, Genera of item, Comerical number. That way you could block all comericals from 'Company A, C, X' I understand that this may be hard to do. FCC would have to set up a bill that would require all comerical to have said information tacked on so the TV can block it.

A simplar solution would simply have a UPC like code attached to it, and you simply see a comerical you dont want, You click 'block' on your remote and would never see that comerical again. Granted if the company comes out with a new comerical, you have to block that one too. But its a start.

This way no more 'girls gone wild', godaddy.com pervert during superbowl while kids are watching, 4 hr stiffy drugs, lame geico squids, or stupid blankets with holes in them.
