one wonders why an 'inaudible signal' would affect microphones that are designed for human voice frequencies.
unless of course that inaudible signal is actually a high power laser to destroy the offender.. but i'm not comfortable wearing laser goggles everywhere.
thought : a gadget that says words in my exact tone intonation and style incessantly while I talk to throw the speech-to-text systems off via garbage injuection -- boy that'd be obnoxious to compete with in a conversation.
tl;dr : sounds like a new high priced ultra-sonic mouse deterrent.
