Today I was reading about a device the military has access to called ADS that is used as a crowd control measure. It fires a concentrated beam of electromagnetic waves at targets, stimulating the sensation of being on fire.

Is it possible to defeat this new tool of worker oppression and if so how? Can protesters affordably defeat this measure on a mass scale?

    “The ADS works by firing a high-powered (100 kW output power) beam of 95 GHz waves at a target, which corresponds to a wavelength of 3.2 mm”

    Well, there you go - it’s effectively a very intense infrared beam which is close to the visible spectrum.

      Sounds like you can just space blanket it up then.

        We both had the same idea and posted about it at the same time ;)
