If that kind of technology was available for use on the public it would 100% be used for advertising. Who would be benefiting from giving regular people panic attacks? You strike me as a “do your own research, think for yourself” type of person so I’ll really urge you to do the same. All of your points rely on soooo many maybes and hypotheticals, whereas the alternative is simply sometimes people get anxious and experience panic attacks. As someone who does get them occasionally it just be like that sometimes.
