You can buy little IR blasters that plug into the USBC port on your phone and allow you to use it as a remote control. Turn off every TV you see playing sky.

Every little bit helps.

They're also good for turning off Keno TVs.

Some phones still have IR blasters built in too, although it's mostly just Xiaomi.
