I came across this article and I found it to be very interesting and informative. I learned about a new weapon system and a new method of subterfuge I had previously not known. It's an interesting read.

What do you think about this method being used during war?

One method I do agree with, and it's realer than people think, or TV portrays is constant satellite surveillance. As a insurance adjuster, I could make a phone call and within 15 minutes get a satellite picture of any street, house, or car i wanted. This technology definitely should be used more in combat operations for decisions on the ground.

I'm sure the U.S use satellite surveillance to monitor North Korea, Iran, China, and other countries that poses a threat to us, and they are doing the same too. I received a letter today from Office of Personnel Management (OPM) about theft of background investigation records, my information got hacked with thousands of others. What happen to our squeaky tight cyber security?

Well I know what electronic harassment is CPT (Join to see). I get harassed a few times a week on Skype which I only use to communicate with one of my sons. My spam catcher and malware protection block most other spam.attempted intrusions.
When I first saw you post my thoughts drifted to those young people who are abused by "friends' on facebook and other social media and commit suicide as a result.
Electronic surveillance countermeasures have been around for a long time and used by military, intel, security, etc for many decades. It isn't surprising that it is being marketed now for "private" purposes.

LOL. Nobody, to include me, reads the fine print. that's how they get us. All this legal mumbo jumbo that we really don't understand that relinquishes our rights.

CW3 Bernard"Chief" Collier - Sir social media is what made America falling in many ways, people nowadays judging anything without knowing the conclusion, I think people like to see bad things happen more than anything in the news, that's the fact and we all know it.

I totally agree. It's true because it's on the internet. No research at all. Social media tracks us so well they can advertise to you based on what sites you been to.

Yep some of us trusted internet so much and had to learn it in the hard way, example Ashly Madison.

Holy Electron, Batman! Gene Hackman really was right!
It appears I'm past due on my faraday cage construction schedule, although I have modified my copper wear to emit a reverse polarity field to foil those dastards attempting to steal my deepest secret knowledge of the cosmos.

In answer to the question, every weapon in the arsenal should be used in time of war. I believe we, as a society. have become too mushy about waging war. We don't do ourselves any favors by combating our enemies with half measures. I think if we were to wage total war as a response to being attacked, the process will be a short one. We don't need to draw things out, that gives our enemies a learning curve and increases our casualties. In my not so humble opinion, of course. :-)

"It is well that war is so terrible, otherwise we would grow too fond of it." I think all means should be used to win. It is what we do after that distinguishes us from our enemies

CPT (Join to see) Interesting this is on a commercial site, usually they sell more bug detection type of devices, usually a RF scanner that looks for local signature or lead foil, this one is the logical extension of putting aluminum foil over your head and it still will not defeat current devices.
The TSCM field has been around since WWII, 'bug sweeps' are common events prior to big corporate or political meetings, my wife started in the security industry 25 years ago doing this type of work.
The best bug sweeps are combos of dogs, humans and technology.
Microwave is OLD technology, a more current method is to bounce a laser off a window or other surface that is attenuated by the internal conversation, much easier to capture to information w/o detection.
