If the TV buggering is like that for which Vizeo got tagged and fined, the TV is reporting something rather different than location - it is frequently reporting a tag that can be used to link-back to know what is being displayed on the screen,
So the TV can report what you are watching even if you are watching a DVD or an over-the-air broadcast.
