The voices in your head are going commercial

And are asking if you need life insurance or a new credit card:


A&E is literally targeting consumers with hypersonic beams on billboards. The rays broadcast sound in a beam, so the noise is inaudible unless the consumer/victim strays into the target area--in which case they may experience the sound as a voice in their head.
Lovely. I'm sure the government is looking into this as a crowd control device, sowing confusion amid the protesters for example....

What a horrific intrusion of privacy... forced to listen to ads in your own head.
