Oh, sweet FSM! I don’t know how many times I’ve wanted to scream in a Zoom meeting, “IF YOU’RE NOT TALKING F—ING MUTE!!! HOW THE F–K HAVE YOU NOT LEARNED THIS IN FOUR F—ING YEARS?” The guy in the cube across from me, the mike on his headphones picks up everything, and he refuses to mute unless he’s specifically told to.
Someone created a “speech jammer” using this principle by modulating ultrasonic sound that your brain will modulate back to your speech inside your head with some delay… fun stuff [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-SH18dtBlY](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-SH18dtBlY)
