Short pulse EMPs of this caliber won’t electrocute people but they will stop implant devices. We do know these things, they aren’t unknown.
The effects of sound based weapons has been studied but not well enough and honestly they tend to be very impractical based on their low effectiveness, ease of countering, disparity of impact on subjects, energy consumption, etc. a brown note bomb would be something though, drop the bass and a duce.
while i don’t really like any sort of authoritarian control device, i do prefer the non-lethal ones over the alternative and applaud anyone in any of these positions pushing for non-lethal options and de-escalation. it isn’t as effective as policy change but it is better than what we usually get.
