                        6,000 Patents Hidden By The Government | U.S. Invention Secrecy Act

                        Short video: https://octade.net/urls/6000_patents.html

                        In 1998, Stanley Meyer claimed to invent a car that ran on water. Days later, he was dead—and his invention disappeared. But Meyer wasn't the only one. There’s a federal law, still active today, that allows the U.S. government to classify and bury private inventions deemed a “threat.” It's called the Invention Secrecy Act—and it's already been used over 6,000 times.

                        From Nikola Tesla’s wireless energy to Townsend Brown’s anti-gravity tech to Joseph Papp’s engine that ran on noble gases, history is littered with breakthrough inventors who vanished into obscurity... and whose technologies never made it to the public.

                        This episode uncovers the case studies, the hidden power of secrecy orders, and the chilling question: What else have they buried?
