Hello Hugues, Of all the posts about the documentary 'the Bronswick Affair' yours is the most accurate. I fell for this story, completely. I remember the TV set was the common denominator found in a group's research into out of character purchases of products eventually leading to the manufacturers of the Bronswick TV Co who employed a scientist to produce the 'techno evil' device which was placed in their TVs. When he committed suicide, the outraged city rose up (Toronto?) and destroyed the company.
