You know those “warrant roundup” stings you see on TV sometimes…where the local Sheriffs office disguises itself as a company giving away free TV’s or something all in an effort to lure folks with Warrants out into the open? Yeah, this sounds like something similar….DARPA has enough brain power to build a nuclear reactor, much less figure out how to build some “Anarchist Cookbook special”, believe me. Stay Away. Stay Very Far Away from This. -SF
In an effort to defend against improvised explosive attacks, the Pentagon’s research arm DARPA is looking to pay “crafty hobbyists” capable of turning household items into bombs.
Take a cursory look at the warning labels on the products beneath your kitchen sink and it will come as no surprise that danger-seeking chemists, engineers and ordinary citizens can turn common everyday objects into deadly weapons.
In an effort to stay one step ahead of possible improvised attacks, the Pentagon’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) will pay people who can develop deadly devices from consumer electronics, household chemicals, or other “commercially available technology.”
“For decades, US national security was ensured, in large part, by a simple advantage: a near-monopoly on access to the most advanced technologies,” according to an agency press release.
“Increasingly, however, off-the-shelf equipment developed for the transportation, construction, agricultural and other commercial sectors features highly sophisticated components, which resourceful adversaries can modify or combine to create novel and unanticipated security threats.”
The announcement sets very few parameters for participants, only stressing that builders are not allowed to do anything illegal.
“Proposers are free to reconfigure, repurpose, program, reprogram, modify, combine, or recombine commercially available technology in any way within the bounds of local, state, and federal laws and regulations,” the announcement reads.
