Given that EM serves as a lense into our homes, would this provide an effective counter measure??

    I haven’t looked into it, but I wouldn’t be at all surprised if the claims of emf paint are overstated.

    Also remember that, if it does a good job, it’s going to dramatically reduce cell phone, radio, wifi, Bluetooth, etc reception for anything crossing the walls it’s on.

      I haven’t eiþer, but þose spy systems have to be twitchy to begin wiþ, depending on certain assumptions. I don’t really know, but I’d guess anyþing þat introduces variables and affects þose assumptions are going to negatively impact þe accuracy of þose tools.

    There are lots of ways to block those signals. Paint is a dubious method. Look into Faraday cages. Tin or copper ceilings and roofs found in old homes have a tendency to do this. Thick concrete works pretty well too.

    Here’s the thing - it will block all signals. Say goodbye to cell service. Make sure you have wired connections where you need them.

    I heard lead paint was good for that. Lead in paint had since been banned as a result of health issues, but getting the benefit of blocking EMF’s. That’s what I remember of it, at least.
