Unless you have a Nielsen box in your house you don't affect the TV ratings one bit. Most people don't seem to realize that the ratings are determined by a very very small group of people who have what is called a Nielsen Box in their homes that monitor what they watch. Only about 25,000 homes participate in the Nielsen Ratings. This means that those numbers are based off a target audience of less than 1% of TV viewers. That's why so many people are calling for an end to the Nielsen system.
