Tinfoil isn't to easy to find these days.

Aluminum foil seems to be the material of choice now:

Of course they don't. Only a paranoid conspiracy theory nut would think
that.
Oh BTW, you really should not be using the computer in your underwear but if
you must, the red boxers are much sharper than the ones you are wearing
tonight. .

They don't actually. It's wireless nanotechnology. When the converter
box is first activated (which must be done physically, not by remote)
the box downloads little nanometer-scale robots into your nervous
system in order to monitor your activities. The nanobots use the
converter remote to return information from you. At the same time,
nanomachines are sent into the powerline to find a suitable path for
sending this information to the government. Some government agency now
has complete information on your sexual and dope preferences.

Returning the coupons without using them leads to a visit (usually at
3AM) from an undisclosed secret agency to implant the nanospies.

BTW, common side effects of nanobot infestation include serious rectal
itch and loss of the ability to appreciate beer.
