It has been confirmed that the source of RPC-233's cognitive effect lies within these sub-harmonic tones, though unlike previous tests, it seems that the effect of looking for the source of the sound only applies when the rest of the audio is accompanying it. Further research shall be carried out to determine the specifics of this effect. Re-classification to Neutralized has been approved.
That's not how Neutralized works.
In general, an ok piece, but the idea could have led to something much more compelling. The researchers are focused on figuring out the specifics of the sound when I think it would have been much better for them to play this on somebody and just let them go to where they think the source of the recording comes from.
Maybe involving the USOC in this or something could also make it more interesting, although this was probably written before that was a thing.
Just a standard conspiracy without big mystery. 3 stars.
