They work great if you ground them with a 30 foot logging chain.

Among a fringe community of paranoids, aluminum helmets serve as the protective measure of choice against invasive radio signals.

But what about telepathy? Does tinfoil block telepathy or not?

Leave it to a bunch of engineers to spend a fortune testing the wrong question!

What stuff. Of course the hats work.

This is just another sloppily executed DARPA disinformation project.

The conclusive rebuttal is here.

Statistical evidence suggests the use of helmets may in fact enhance the government's invasive abilities. We speculate that the government may in fact have started the helmet craze for this reason.

Well thanks alot for that information, how very helpful of them to let me know after all these years.

1) only use the aluminium from beer cans
2) have the cans beaten into shape of your head
3) do this (by someone you trust, like an ex-wife, any inlaw or teenage son) directly on your head
4) trust the goverment.
5) beleive everything on DU. (repeat this until you get it right)

Thank you

I asked another engineer about this and made the suggestion that we wrap our heads in duct tape prior to attaching the aluminum foil helmet.

His response: "Actually, probably not. The duct tape is a pretty good dielectric at those frequencies, and the variations in the thickness and overlap would form a bit of lensing and concentrate the field strength. The aluminum foil is best used standalone.

One thing that may have helped would have been to crinkle the aluminum foil more. That would tend to scatter the propagating EM waves."

I think we haven't gone far enough! We need ear coverage in the form of foil wrapped earmuffs (it's easy to get to the brain via the ear canal) and EYE protection as, it is easy to get in the head via the eye sockets, nasal passages and sinus cavities. I would urge caution using the foil wrapped sunglasses while operating machinery or being seen in public.
