这篇文章考虑了Moscow，一种越来越多地被用于将青少年赶出公共场所的声波驱避剂。在其社会和政治背景下定位这种技术，其部署的法律的后果被认为是。卫生部是否满足健康和安全要求？是否违反环保法规？使用该器械是否具有反社会性？部署这种武器是否构成一种刑事骚扰？最后，莫斯科是否无可辩驳地干涉了人权？对这些问题的回答是提供的，沿着有可能的补救措施。
This article considers the Mosquito, a sonic repellent that is increasingly being used in a bid to drive teenagers out of public spaces. Having located this technology in its social and political context, the legal ramifications of its deployment are considered. Does the Mosquito satisfy health and safety requirements? Does it contravene environmental regulations? Is utilization of this device antisocial? Does its deployment constitute a form of criminal harassment? Finally, does the Mosquito unjustifiably interfere with human rights? Responses to the questions are offered, along with potential remedies for redress.
