I would love to experience this. 100% willing to challenge the 1hr timeframe thing too.

Have been in one of those. Cant actually say where other than working as a security guard for Department of Defence about a decade ago, a site i was working on was a research establishment for various things, they had a silent room, had sat in it, you can literally feel the silence, its weird as fuck.

It didn't hurt your ears?

kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiind of... hurt is probably the wrong word. I dont think it was as super super super quiet as the on in the article is supposed to be but yeah you definitely feel the silence and if you sit their long enough you hear weird shit you dont realise is you.
you definitely feel the pressure on your eardrums when you shut the door.
legit fucking weird experience ill tell you.

I don't know if the voices in my head would be loud enough to drown out my tinnitus if it was that quiet.

This all sounds like infrasound to me. That shit will make you feel very unsettled and worried, and you won't know why. Hearing your bloodflow, your digestive system, etc. can be weird, but I think that dread comes from infrasound more than anything.

If you are highly self aware of your body and health, I would think this place would be fascinating. Being at Microsoft, I bet most of the people who have been in there are high strung and can't be alone with their own thoughts anyway.

True.
True.
I'll bet there's infrasound in there. This is a fascinating phenomena.
If you don't know about it, infrasound is super low frequency that humans can't hear. It will make you feel extremely uncomfortable, nervous, like you're being watched. Your eyeballs vibrate slightly, which may cause you to see shit out of the corner of your eyes- shapes that vanish when you look directly at them. All of this comes with an overall sense of dread.
Many locations that are allegedly "haunted" have been found to have old duct work and other things that generate infrasound. A scientist actually discovered this, can't recall where/when, but they had a lab where they were working on aerodynamics or something like that. All of the staff kept reporting haunting-type activity, hearing noises, seeing apparitions, feeling that sense of dread. The lead scientist investigated and found that one of the rooms they used near the center of the building was generated tremendous infrasound due to how the structure was built and how the ventilation shafts were set up.
Once this infrasound was stopped, the "haunting" bullshit stopped. I would bet that the vast majority of "haunted" locations have infrasound issues. The fact that it just makes you feel afraid, or dread, like something terrible is going to happen, makes your imagination run wild. Your mind tries to fill in the blanks- it must be a ghost, it can't be anything else, you've even seen it with your own (vibrating) eyes!

...and this phenomenon would be perfect to weaponize to agitate people and make them feel afraid.

I think 5G towers might give off this shit. Remember all the birds and other animals attacking these towers? It might be for another reason, but it could be that it's giving off a sound at a frequency humans can't hear, but birds and other animals can hear it like the horns of hell blasting nonstop.

So then, could "weapons" be developed that induce infrasound?

Absolutely. Long term shit, and you don't even need hard to get equipment to generate it. A fucked up speaker could be giving it off constantly while turned on, and you wouldn't know it unless you had monitors providing a readout.
Imagine- you have a political opponent running against you. You want him to lose the race, obviously. So you have speakers planted around his house covertly, hidden, set to generate infrasound constantly. Every moment he's home, he's subjected to it. Over the course of months, he'll become a paranoid, nervous wreck, his sleep all fucked up. He'll be seeing shit, hearing shit, feeling shit that's not there.
And then he'll begin to seem more and more unhinged. He'll look like shit at all of his speeches.
Or, think on a bigger scale- you have a population that you want to fuck up, all living in the same city. Set speakers up all over the place generating infrasound. Soon, you have a population all agitated and paranoid, lashing out at each other, mass psychosis may manifest as they see "hauntings" and other nonsense.
A lot of older buildings with older ventilation systems have problems with this already.
Interesting fact- some things in nature generate infrasound. An example would be a lion's roar. I wonder if this bizarre weakness we have to infrasound is an evolved trait that was developed over the centuries to act as an early warning system, to set us on edge when the distant march of thousands of hostile enemies was generating this noise, or predators, or w/e. In that case, it's good that it makes you paranoid and worried, because then you'll be able to combat the threat.
But when there is no threat, it'll drive you mad.
