> “I can’t imagine a Joe Blow citizen having that equipment to be used for anything other than malicious intent,” Morgan Hill Mayor Rich Constantine told KTVU.

I can't think of a reason, therefore it's malicious is pretty shady logic, for sure.

But an empty house with all this tech that has only this one obvious objective, namely EM-shadow the area, does indeed look pretty suspicious.

I'm quite curious now, and hope we get a follow-up on this, to find out what the real objective was.
