  1. Morning all! Today's offerings at the gopherhole are a mix of dystopia and sleaze. I've added a very few selected Epstein files which I'll be keeping visible with today's date for the rest of the week. Also, some papers on 5th Generation Warfare, which segways nicely(?) into Long Range Acoustic Devices (LRAD). I'm also scratching around for some info on NBIC...

    TBH I'm constantly bemused by the money and effort "we" put into hurting/killing/controlling each other, especially in the name of freedom.

    "Enjoy" .. at petergarner.net/#gopher-latest - today only, thereafter via your gopher client 😉

  2. @adafruit There was a video that clearly demonstrated how to #resist the effects of an (admittedly, home made) #LRAD on YouTube.

    The Summary is: In-canal Earplugs, Passive over-the-ear earmuffs, and a curved plexiglass shield -- and if I remember correctly, the inside of the curve facing the LRAD (the opposite orientation of a standard riot shield) was the best way to reflect and diffuse the sound, making it possible to approach within just a few feet of the unit.

  10. I’m seeing conflicting reports of LRAD use in Minnesota (probably not by ICE/CBP despite some reports, more likely to be state police).

    Most detailed report here:

    cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/min

    LRADs have been used for civilian crowd dispersal in the US before and have quite a range of operating settings, from benign focused audio transmission over a distance to REALLY EFFING LOUD AND DAMAGING TONES AT 160 dB

    One of the original use cases for an LRAD is actually to communicate between ships across distances prior to boarding to provide warnings (e.g., mounted to a coastguard vessel). They weren’t really designed for civil urban use (although that’s a slippery one) but have wide military applications both as communication (including psyops) and in a more weaponised form.

    Sounds louder than 85 dB(A) require hearing protection at work for context).

    Interestingly even the CIA back at the height of black site torture recommend that music or noise louder than 79 dB(A) shouldn’t be used in ‘interrogation’ so that gives you another interesting yardstick.

    State police say above that they are using them at the benign end of the spectrum but I haven’t seen anything that confirms this.

    (I spent a whole year researching sonic weaponry/use of sound in interrogation so know far too much about this stuff most of which I never used)

  14. Of particular importance to #iceOut organizers in #Minneapolis #Minnesota and other cities under #gestapo occupation: how to protect yourself and others against an #LRAD, including how to reflect the attack towards the attackers.

  18. #LRAD ICE IS USING THIS AGAINST PROTESTORS‼️ LONG RANGE ACOUSTIC DEVICE‼️

  19. #L'ICE semble désormais utiliser l'arme #LRAD (dispositif acoustique à longue portée) à courte portée contre des manifestants pacifiques à #Minneapolis.

  24. # Armes soniques: bientôt la fin du déni ?

    > «Utiliser le son comme une #arme, ce n’est plus de la science-fiction. Les armes soniques existent. Des États les utilisent sur le terrain militaire, mais aussi pour le maintien de l’ordre. Le 15 mars dernier, lors d’une manifestation massive dans la capitale serbe, #Belgrade, la foule s’est fendue en deux. Un son étrange a provoqué un mouvement de panique.»
