SHUT UP! Why do you enjoy limitless heat on your nuts?
On a side note, the "limitless, unbearable pain" sounds exactly like rowing on an ergometer (if anyone has any idea what I'm talking about I'm sure you can back me up)
I guess the dead and dying masses prefer stupid jokes and Doom comments to actual truth.
Yeah its a tech site but how funny is it gonna be when your kid calls you from the college protest you told him/her not to go to, and you find out they essentially tortured your own child into submission. Pray you don't have loved ones who believe in the right to dissent. Repeated exposure to this thing could riddle their body with PERMANENT pinched nerves.
Don't you just love America. Where we can claim we are better than everyone else because we are so free, and yet we laugh when our government openly plots to role mass-torture devices to use on its own people.
Do you even have a clue what a pinched nerve is? If not, just think about what it means to pinch something and then re-evaluate the likeliness of that happening.
@nikola: First off, it's not our government, but our private sector. This comes from Raytheon, and despite that they're heavily intertwined with our military, they are not (YET) our military. Second, I would prefer the perception of being set on fire to ACTUALLY being set on fire. Third, what makes you think this will be limited to the United States? Raytheon sells equipment all over the world. This could be anywhere within a month. I predict a huge market in third-world warlords, banana-republics, and potential war criminals. Fourth; get off your soap-box. Just because it comes from an American company doesn't mean it's exclusively American, or that it is some reflection on American mass-culture. This isn't an excuse to bash a foreign (or even your home) country or your belief of the goals of its future, as-yet-unnamed leaders. And last, "permanently pinched nerves" from a low-penetration microwave emitter? That's just plain idiotic. Do you learn science from cereal boxes? Do you think Wifi can hurt you, too?
Oddly enough, this is the first time an aluminum-foil hat would actually do some good. Or just a piece of sheet metal.

the ability to inflict "limitless, unbearable pain,"
Steve Jobs already has this covered.

Raytheon can not sell or export ANY technology without the permission of the US Government. It can not be "anywhere" within a month.
