How dumb do you have to be to need to cheat a drivers test....

This is well into literal tin foil hattery, but:

You'd have to check what kind of frequency range it actually protects against, and you'd need a way to test it (no doubt there is some fake emf paint around as well).

You could also wrap your walls in chicken wire and get a pretty decent Faraday cage effect for cheapish.

It'll also break your wifi and phone (if it works).

Unless you are running a spy agency, this is just a waste of effort IMO.

Is it a mount for a chain guard?

If you can't take off the cranks and remove it, maybe tin snips and cut it off?

Alphonso is listening for TV sound signatures, which while definitely intrusive and privacy invading, is not the same as 24/7 listening for voice-to-text-to-ad purposes.

They would only need to listen for a second or so to determine what channel you are on, instead of all the time, so there is a massive difference in scope.

They are effectively shazaming your TV.

Still creepy and invasive, but not 24/7 recording invasive.

Mmmm, no, very mammalian.

Then they have to formally retract their statement. Do it enough times and the pattern becomes clear.

Yes. Theoretically, affected companies could move manufacturing onshore, but that takes years of planning, so realistically, won't happen.

Why? When all you know is a hammer...

Apparently they are back on the Linux train as of 2020, so thats good news.
