Amazing this is still open. 

August 3rd is not our problem. If you do the math from the history here it is more than they can afford: https://gothamist.com/news/city-settles-lawsuit-protesters-who-accused-nypd-firing-sound-cannon-them

All this is a disclosure technique, because we had to ursurp the problem and move on.

Many could dwell on August 3, but I do not give a shit. Plus, oddly enough it worked out better in the end.

On 2/4/22 we submitted a FOIL Request to the NYPD seeking a copy of the Administrative Guide for best practices use of Sound Cannon; Sound Gun; Wave Gun; Sonic Weapons; Active Denial System.

We have strong reasons to respect the technology and perhaps are 'hailed' daily ... The intent of the use of the technology at our expense in Chelsea, New York City is perhaps to be expected? It sure has been a learning experience and is not something I can control directly. 

Anyway, the NYPD got back to us on the Guide... See below: You can expect a response on or about Wednesday, August 3, 2022.

Wow :)
