Vote with your wallets or quit bitching.

I never bought one but I can't do anything about people who have AirBnB's who buy them or hotels that install them in every room.

There are ways around that as well. Call ahead and ask what kind of TVs they have. Tell them why you are concerned and you might just get the hotel to worry about this as well if enough people start bothering them. If you don't have a choice unplug the TV and bring your own laptop.

I can't call ahead if someone else made the reservation though.

Yes, there are many situations where you will not have control of what room you stay in. Are you going to list them all one by one? JFC
