Tell me again how polling stations are “secure spaces”????

Free Space Optics:

“What is Free-Space Optics (FSO)?
FSO is a line-of-sight technology that uses lasers to provide optical bandwidth connections or FSO is an optical communication technique that propagate the light in free space means air, outer space, vacuum, or something similar to wirelessly transmit data for telecommunication and computer networking.

Currently, FSO is capable several Gbps of data, voice and video communications through the air, allowing optical connectivity without requiring fiber-optic cable or securing spectrum licenses.
Links typically operate between the 780 – 1600 nm wavelengths bands and use O/E and E/O converters.

FSO requires light, which can be focused by using either light emitting diodes (LEDs) or lasers (light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation). The use of lasers is a simple concept similar to optical transmissions using fiber-optic cables; the only difference is the transmission media.

Light travels through air faster than it does through glass, so it is fair to classify FSO as optical communications at the speed of the light. FSO communication is considered as an alternative to radio relay link line-of sight (LOS) communication systems.
FSO communications can provide high data rates in Gbits/s ranges through the atmosphere for ranges from a few hundreds of meters to a few kilometers. FSO links include the following:
• chip-to-chip communication
• indoor infrared (IR) or VLC,
• inter-building communication
• free-space laser communications including airborne, space borne, and deep space missions”

“Here are some FSO applications:
• Telecommunication and computer networking
• Point-to-point LOS links
• Temporary network installation for events or other purpose as disaster recovery
• For communications between spacecraft, including elements of satellite constellation
• Security applications
• Military application: (its potential for low electromagnetic emanation when transferring sensitive data for air forces)
• Metro network extensions: carriers can deploy FSO to extend existing metropolitan area fiber rings, to connect new networks
• Enterprise connectivity: the ease with which FSO links can be installed makes them a natural for interconnecting local area network segments that are housed in buildings separated by public streets or other right-of-way property.
• Fiber backup: FSO may also be deployed in redundant links to backup fiber in place of a second fiber link.
• Backhaul: FSO can be used to carry cellular telephone traffic from antenna towers back to facilities wired into the public switched telephone network.”

Neurotechnologies as weapons in national intelligence and defense – An overview
James Giordano, PhD*1-3 and Rachel Wurzman, PhD(c)4


Abstract
Advances in neuroscience and neurotechnology have necessitated discussions on the ways that such developments could be used as weapons in contexts of national security, intelligence, and defense. This paper defines the concept of neuroweapons, and elucidates operational issues associated with their use to aid informational and strategic intelligence, such as brain-machine interfaces to improve efficiency in data analysis. As well, exploration of neuropharmacologic, neuromicrobiological, and neurotoxic agents are discussed relevant to their utility in combat scenarios. The limitations of emerging neurotechnologies as weapons are addressed, as both regards practical and operational frameworks, and implications relevant to formulation of ethico-legal guidelines and governance of research, development and potential use.
