Okay, this study has absolutely fascinated me. Tried to find the full study but failed, but Gang Chen (MIT professor, primary author) has a 40 minute symposium about it. Piped bot incoming, hopefully: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=B1PbNTYU0GQ

Potentially the bot will struggle with a mobile link but depends on the regexes it is using. I'd be surprised if it didn't find it though!

I like pounding YouTube on firefox with full ad-blocks engaged. hehe funny how nobody noticed. light is a range of frequencies so I'd expect best results at some harmonic frequencies.
