    Speech Jammer - enemy of free speech

    Ok, got it: Ashes come from burning.

    I noticed that yesterday, but they don't seem to be presenting it quit right. Does it work? I assume so. Does it only work at a specific spot behind the device? Again, I would guess so. I'm not sure I'd dare to use one of those though. Pointing a gun of any sorts at somebody is likely to get you in trouble some places.

      This video offers some insight into how it works:

          If you pulled that thing out anywhere public in the states, youd have the local police, the state police, the SWAT team, the bomb squad, the FBI, the national guard, and the secret service pointing much more dangerous laser sighted objects at you in no time. It needs to be a bit more discreet....

            Maybe not but I'm afraid neither would you since it would merely turn it into UMPH! UMPH! BLAB! BLAH!...

              Technology always trumps technology.

              Noise canceling headphones, or discrete earphones, would block that out of phase feedback and the the speaker could continue on as usual.

                Here is another alternative although one would actually have to blink once in a while.



                The reverse of this technology was the "delay" hearing aid that Mel Tillis advocated for people who stutter. He actually demod it on a Johnny Carson show, the problem was that the audience expected him to stutter since it had become part of his schtick.
