It's why Elon has said roughly that if you can detect tunnels being dug you should contact the military because you'll become rich; he said this at least once in reference to concerns that people in cities would feel The Boring Company tunnels being bored underneath their city - that you can't feel/notice it; obviously when breaching the surface you will.
I've honestly wondered at times if industrious nations - who are arguably in contention with the ways of freedom and democracy - may be digging towards other continents, even if at current technology it would take 40+ years to make the journey. If you can all of a sudden deploy millions to 10s of millions of operatives and/or soldiers - even if it's a long journey, perhaps each with significant Bitcoin or perhaps cash in the currency of who you're invading, you might be able to very quickly takeover a large nation; or get a foothold, and arguably why the right to bear arms is additionally important - for domestic bad actors but foreign bad actors could in this scenario now be local.
- wolverine876 5y ago> you can't feel/notice it I've read stories for years about people having problems with vibrations from tunneling. One was a music studio in Brooklyn, IIRC, which went out of business because of boring for a new water tunnel.
