A 7-Eleven in Austin, Texas is reportedly using opera music to keep homeless people from camping out in front of the store.
TV station KXAN reported on the store which residents in the city’s Riverside neighborhood say is using weaponized arias to keep its sidewalks from being used as pillows.

The station even interviewed one homeless man about the tunes terminating from the convenience store.
I’m sorry, they interviewed a “man experiencing homelessness” as the station said. It’s tough to stay abreast of the constantly changing semantics.
