I went on Facebook (I know I know I know) and they are selling tinfoil hats.

@futurebird

Thanks! Enjoyable info!

p.s. I looked up IEEE-299. It's a test method standard, not a standard on how well this hat protects you from Larry Ellison or ICE. Too bad!

@futurebird @digitalsnow some years back I had need of RF shielding material for a project. I found a reseller online who had the products I wanted and the technical information that indicated they knew what they were talking about. (I forget who.)

They _also_ carried underwear, wallpaper, and other literal “tinfoil hat” type products.

I thanked them for having what I needed and casually commented on the others.

“People buy them, so we stock them.”

"well this hat protects you from Larry Ellison"

... is there a hat for that? I could... IDK I'm curious.

[koushiniku@hachyderm.io]

@futurebird @serverlessaoife I’d expect the baseball/trucker hat to have dog whistle pricing before the beanie.

@futurebird

I wish!

I logged in to Facebook this morning after the longest break yet (many months or maybe a year). At first it was nice to see what people were doing, but eventually it became a solid stream of targeting me with bs. Useless.

[scofisticated@socel.net]

@futurebird Sad that ppl would sell like that. Sad that some might fall for it.

Also, as a hat fan, they dont need the tin foil gimmick. It would be a perfectly good looking beanie without.

[airikr@mst-gts.airikr.me]

@futurebird Seriously?! Are people that gullible? Oh, wait, Facebook. Makes more sense now.

[futurebird@sauropods.win]

@Scofisticated

Yeah, the design isn't that bad. But I think you can find one on aliexpress for $6 without the pseudo science liner.

Or often hats are on offer as handmade goods since they aren't that hard to make. (I am to lazy however. I would like to buy a hat ready to go.)

[lunaphied@provably.online]

@futurebird the latter or they literally don't care

As we say in England - they must be Havn a laugh...

The reviews are quite something. Trying to summon the energy to look up the 'Clinician Reviewed' quacks.... Probably low energy because of the signals. Maybe I need a hat.

The real "wavestopper" that will protect your brain is a robust ad blocker, and get off of facebook.

If I say that ads give out brainrot waves would people be more excited about this?

[kookie@toot.cat]

@futurebird wow this seems cruel

[mlrife@mastodon.social]

@futurebird Sure, but does it protect from chemtrails? /s

When I see things like this I'm reminded that having actual ethics & morals is why I continue to be (relatively) poor.

[futurebird@sauropods.win]

@mlrife

*podering the morality of selling MAGA hats with such a lining*

no no no... even so, I don't think I could sleep.

[mlrife@mastodon.social]

@sudaksis @futurebird Remember when Mike Pillowguy was selling pillows for $14.88? Purely coincidence.

[realtegan@wandering.shop]

@futurebird
I haven't spent any significant time on Facebook in years, and even before then, my adblocking software tended to remove the worst of the crap. So... yeah.

[srlevine@neuromatch.social]

@sollat @futurebird If you use it on the computer and not an app there is a firefox extension that will block ads and everything you don't actually follow called "social fixer"

@futurebird The leaps people go to in order to avoid acknowledging that Covid causes brain fog and many other symptoms. This won't stop brain fog as it does absolutely nothing for the underlying causes.

It's predatory as fuck. And it won't even work as claimed. Plus it's made-up certification? I hate this. May the designers step on legos for the rest of their lives.
