I'm surprised that making sure noise output is sane isn't a standard part of certifying stuff for human consumption, but then I guess that's the whole "free market will sort it out" idea not working as expected. Nice to have work like this to say that maybe it would be a good idea :) It isn't just the "loud" noise, either. There's a giant white and dark grey yacht parked in the Vancouver Harbour about half of the year. (It's the one near Jimmy Patison's yacht, except at least twice as large and probably modelled after a Star Destroyer). I have never seen it move, but as long as it is there, it emits a low-frequency hum that causes noticeable churn in the water over a ~150 meter radius. It is like a giant, evil subwoofer of the unreasonably rich. It's frustrating to paddle anywhere near it, it gives me a headache, and I can't imagine what it does to animals that share the water. Whenever I'm near it I'm bothered that the thing is allowed to exist, let alone park there.
