  • The big thing people over look when considering the we are broadcasting thousands od watts into space, they might hear use is SNR

    Signal to noise ratio. (the more random stuff on a frequency the harder it is to read the signal)

    Yes, humans are pumping out a huge amount of radio (etc) signals into space. it is not coherent or directed.

    Thousands of antennae all over the world pumping different signals but from far away, they are all noise interfering with each other.

    IIRC: Even if there was a radio telescope only a few light years away, all they would see pointing directly at earth would be static.









  • Give them advice about how to do it to someone else.

    The vast majority of people (i include myself in this) will fuck it up in some way and end up harming themselves. If you seek to destroy someone’s life and you don’t actually end it, you leave behind someone who has nothing left to lose and is highly motivated to find who is responsible.

    If you destroy someone’s life they may end yours.
