I am assuming you guys are talking about tuning the HSS frequency into a range that will render a person either unconscious or with a splitting headache if that person was the target of the "modified" HSS frequency. While this application may have merit with the military and the police department, I'm hoping that there isn't a way for anyone to hack the future consumer version of the HSS speaker and turn it into a potentially dangerous weapon. I wouldn't want to be "zapped" unconscious by some stranger while taking a walk at the park and found my wallet gone after waking up... but this is just a mild example of the abuse that this "future" weapon can weave havoc on us. What is even worse is that there is no physical evidence of the victim being "zapped" unless a new brain scanner is developed that can detected "zapped" brain. I will prefer that no such frequency can be found that can be dangerous to us. But then, we are constantly walking a fine line between taking advantage of advanced technologies and being at the mercy of the same technologies. Let's hope for the best.
