You may not think about it often, but the Internet uses a colossal amount of electricity. This, in turn, means that the Internet’s carbon footprint has grown to the point where it may have eclipsed global air travel , and this makes the Internet the largest coal-fired machine on Earth. These include data transfer (i.e.

It takes very little energy: the feedback loop doesn’t power the amplifier. By controlling the properties of the feedback loop—in this case, the distance between the speaker and the microphone—you can control the system’s output. There’s no obvious point of control. It quickly makes rational discussion impossible; that’s its point.
