My guess is the machines are a complete fake and don’t do anything outside of having some fancy dials and meters that a select few people are trained on how to ‘trick’ people into making look like they do something.

If people start digging into it then shit will hit the fan.

My guess is they want this stopped or at the least delayed until they can come up with some other bullshit method.

They do do something. They are simple ohmmeters. They measure the body resistance of whoever's holding the probes. They took a common electronics tool and made it a religious artifact.

I thought some of the meditative religions did it first... They're always like "ohm"
