The discussion centers on the practical blocking of the microwave auditory effect, also known as the Frey effect, particularly in the context of "voice to skull" (v2k) technology. Participants suggest various methods for blocking v2k signals, including the use of tin foil hats, EMF shielding fabric, and Faraday cages. It is noted that intelligence installations may use conductive materials to prevent eavesdropping, which could also isolate a space from such signals. The conversation emphasizes a hypothetical approach without delving into conspiracy theories. The thread concludes after addressing the question of practical solutions for blocking these signals.

TL;DR
Hypothetically, if someone could send "v2k" to a person's brain, how could this v2k be blocked, practically? A tin foil hat? The EMF shielding fabric?

A Faraday cage would work -- er, yes, a literal tinfoil hat. I would think that US intelligence installations (thinking of "Havana Syndrome") already line their walls with conductive materials to prevent eavesdropping on their EM signals, and this would also work to isolate a room or house.

Note, we do not discuss conspiracy theories here.

Welcome to PF. Since Russ has answered your question, I'll go ahead and close the thread.

Topic about reference frames, center of rotation, postion of origin etc Comoving ref. frame is frame that is attached to moving object, does that mean, in that frame translation and rotation of object is zero, because origin and axes(x,y,z) are fixed to object? Is it same if you place origin of frame at object center of mass or at object tail? What type of comoving frame exist? What is lab frame? If we talk about center of rotation do we always need to specified from what frame we observe?
