I would however like to hear the result a genuine target had and the specifications of the cage.
What would the cost be for such a thing...on a small scale? Not sure I could afford it nor would I immediately know how to construct it properly but I would be very interested in the results...I'm sure there are a few others who might be interested. Experiment only though because I don't think it is feasible to remain there forever and as a means to convince people it is completely useless as it relies on the same subjective experience to report on viability.

DeepThought states that the amount of disruption this would cause to the productivity of the experiment would make it unfeasible to continue in the long term. Its not an efficient use of resources.

That's one hell of a presumption and one I am unsure I agree with. For one, the very act of building a Faraday Cage still contains the subjective experience of the target. How does one explain remote harassment to a non believer?
Originally posted by MemoryShock
Then, how does one explain to one's social circle that one has built a special box to block the remote harassment? The explanation doesn't compute either way because the experience is still stuck in the realms of subjectivity.

For two, if the target can be targeted out of the blue by whatever/whoever this is, do you really think that they couldn't/wouldn't try again?

Or that the frequency isn't locked on and can't be re-entrained immediately after exiting the cage?

If we are talking about the use of efficient resources and a system of harassment controlled by an artificial intelligence then we are only talking about the electricity consumed by the computer.

If it is a system of harassment under direct human control then I highly doubt that one small building will dissuade them. They have the money and the surveillance capacity to determine schedules if they decide to work around it (if it works) and certainly have the resources to sabotage the cage..indiscreetly even.

Not buying the idea that a Faraday Cage is a solution. If there are indirect ways to provoke more information from the use of one then I am all for it but let's not describe it as a means to guarantee the cessation of symptoms. It's irresponsible phrasing...

Oye...I should have just posted the question in the notes section of his article. Your use of "DeepThought says" disturbs me for some reason...smart guy and doing stuff I can't do but even he has to see that some of his presumptions might be off base...

What if the signals are multiple and one of them is synthetic telepathy? While trying to track down how to communicate with one cell is sexy as #e, synthetic telepathy doesn't use just one neuron. Which means it has to be similar in nature to other voice transmission technologies...my girlfriend has said that when things are quiet (she's napping in the other room and I am on the webs) she can hear something very faint though I can hear them very clear...and feel them.

The previous paragraph is relevant because it is personal experience stating that the signal is not as precise as being surmised.

Now answer me this. How are you so sure in your response with a situation you are surmising upon, did not even know existed seven years ago and have no direct participation in?

When this guy recommends a Faraday cage, I would listen.

Also i should note that this particular frequency weapon in the long run would save money and keep the TI program even more secret, because most people like Dr John Hall seem to think that if people were/are getting voice to skull it is being done by paid participants who speak into a mic and then the frequency is beamed to the target, well with this technology a computer could do all the voice to skull by it's self essentiality and that's a very important piece of info.

You didn't exactly answer my question but that is fine. I think we are coming at this from two different perspectives and I certainly can't quantify mine through type. So my main arguing point is that the 'silver bullet' is proof of the signal. The location/identification of the signal, reproduction of the contents of the signal for real world audibility and then letting everyone know what is going on.
Originally posted by MemoryShock
Obviously, this is unrealistic. I don't personally believe that your logic on the uber mega one two punch of a Faraday Cage and perceived resource efficiency will stop a targeting. The entire reasoning seems naive and we are going to have to agree to disagree on this. The cage, as I have stated, could be an interesting experiment but it isn't an end all be all.

Here is my problem with the artificial intelligence idea. I think that currently, there may be research and applications geared towards the creation of such a system but the danger in assuming that there is only a computer doing this completely ignores motivation. It assumes that this truly is random and when this technology becomes more known it will necessarily require investigation into the human factor. People who claim that they are targeted don't just claim voices and psychological issues, there is a whole aspect to being targeted in some cases that requires field personnel. Further, if this is an ongoing development then it is necessary for people to be monitoring...and even participating...in order to quantify the results and determine the viability of the applications.

Skynet is not self aware and does not have unlimited information resources. There are people involved and the fact that they set this system up means there are other things that they are doing. I hate to drop the personal experience card again but I don't think people are at the least sometimes producing the voices I hear...I know it as much as a subjective experience can know something. So probably part of the frustration I am incurring here with somer is because it sounds like I am being told to accept conclusions when they are incomplete, too restrictive or just aren't agreeable...

So, not only does it make you hear things, it tries to actively confuse you as to what you hearing. Remember, who is determining it is human? You are and with no evidence I might add.
That gut instinct is just another form of speech by the A.I. that is not in English, but in the language that precedes English in the brain. You can test this for yourself, think of a sentence, but don't say it in English in your head.
What do you notice?
You have just completed a sentence without the use of language. The A.I. speaks this language too.

Precisely the crux of my issue to; where is the evidence that this is soley artificial intelligence? I think we are both asserting what it is without evidence. Perhaps I am wrong but I'm not sure what it would take to convince me at this time. I think downplaying other aspects in favor of the pure physics of the tech is restricting avenues for investigation...

I have played the games with the voices...it would be several pages describing all the various bored mental games I play when no one in the immediate environment is around.
Non verbal thought, eidetic visualizations/memory - been there done that though I won't say that I have a photographic memory. There are mental exercises one can do to try and increase this brain function though. I am still skeptical that there is a computer program capable of discerning all the subconscious nuances of experience and how each aspect of visual and non visual experience is interpreted by an individual brain much less how such an image/experience may be interpreted differently by many different people.

If we are talking basic manipulations from verbal or subliminal signals then this is either accomplished basically by entrainment/frequency (prison experiments have demonstrated/suggested this in a leaked IBM memo) or through remote NLP...which means it's a form of remote conversational hypnosis. There are other aspects/possibilities that are still viable as well...
