Recent detailed analysis has shown that the aluminum foil hat operates as
an antenna.

This ultra modern aluminum foil hat will protect your pet from the brain
scanning rays of the NSA, certain 'auction' websites,
fbi.com, and CIA
satellites that are monitoring their little subversive thoughts. You may
not have considered this before, but your lead lined hat is worthless if
your pet can give away your secrets to the very people most dangerous to
you - your government!
But we both know that the government's 'pet mind reading threat' pales
in comparison to the unknown dangers of aliens reading your pet's
brainwaves. The PFHT Special Edition [PFHTSE, pronounced Pfootsie], has
a hydrocarbon-chain lining specially designed to filter the hydrogen
band alien brain scans. This space age material may appear to the
untrained eye to be just plain plastic shopping bag, but your pet will
know the difference. All government and alien I/O is cut off. It's like
a firewall for your pet's brain.
