Digital drugs, iDoser

SURELY this doesn't work? Sounds ridiculous...

From Gizmodo.com
Kids around the country are getting high on the internet, thanks to MP3s that induce a state of ecstasy. And it could be a gateway drug leading teens to real world narcotics.

At least that's what Kansas News 9 is reporting about a phenomenon called I-dosing, which involves finding an online dealer who can hook you up with "digital drugs" that get you high through your headphones.

Why not play them over tannoys when riots occur?

Sounds a lot like some applications that were going around a few years ago supposed to be able to manipulate brainwaves to induce different states like sleepiness or increased concentration.

Downloaded this ages ago, tried it a fair bit. Never tried drugs or drink in the past, so have no comparison. But I found all this did was help you reach a state of relaxation where you can either be lulled into half dreaming or panic, depending on which 'dose' you use.

Sounds like Binaural Beats, the most famous of which would be iDoser

I reckon anything anyone gets off it is a placebo.

careful, predators on-line could use this as a means to lure and sexually assault your children. there are reports of children being sexually assaulted with penis-shaped sound waves sent by sick perverts.

If you download these onto a Gateway computer you'll be on heroin in a week.

it works on some people, but placebo does have a large part in it.

MP3s that induce a state of ecstasy

It's not right Joe! I remember.. it all started with the darn fangled "Rock and or Roll" on the "LP's," then their were the 8 tracks Joe... the 8 tracks... but now... with these MP3's Joe... it's everywhere... Speaking as a parent Joe...

Mike 1972 · 15-07-2010 05:30PM

If the MP3 is recorded at a low bitrate would one experience a bad trip :pac:
