When I lived in a country inhabited by straightforward, God-fearing people with no imagination I started a rumour that TV broadcasters could watch you through your TV screen.* This resulted in a number of G---s, whoops, mustn't say which nationality, draping a towel over the TV screen before going to bed.
* Yes I know that some flatscreen TV's now have cameras built in, but this was way back in catholic ray tube days.
I regard this present story as in the same category. BS.
