Aluminum Foil Hats Will Not Stop "Them"

Otter writes "A study at MIT has found that aluminum foil headwear ("Among a fringe community of paranoids..the protective measure of choice against invasive radio signals") actually amplifies certain frequency bands allocated to the US government, as well as a mobile phone range, and is largely ineffective through the rest of the radio spectrum. But we can we trust the study, or are They controlling the researchers?"

The "tin-foil" hat cliche is designed to predjudice and ridicule any one who doesn't by the mainline story. Go google aboyt COINTELPRO and CIA+"Mighty Wurlitzer" or the real dirt on MK-Ultra or Franklin+Bonacci.

You'd wish tin-foil did work.

No, no, it is still paranoia:

(assuming you can trust merriam webster):

Note definition 1:
1. The belief that everyone is out to get you.

Note that it doesn't specify being right or wrong. If you believe everyone is out to get you, then you are paranoid, even if they really are out to get you.

This suddenly explains...

...everyone's fascination with aluminum siding in the 50's! Boy those government guys sure were smart back then!

How to be safe

[ZachPruckowski]

Buy some aluminum foil. Take the whole role, and scrunch it into a ball. Said ball will absorb the mind control rays for you. Wear it as a necklace on a plastic string. voila! Fashionable and mind control free accessorization.
