The practice of mis-information by revealing only part of the data at hand is a practice that predates the internet, it even predates jounalisim. It's a key factor in the foundation in every form of government mankind has ever devised. One of my favorite examples is the main office of the NRA proudly displays the words, "The right to keep and bear arms." and disregards the remainder of that phrase "...with the intent to (establish/maintain) a well ordered militia." So tehnically one would have to be a member of a paramilitary group which has some form of governmental recognition to actually have the right to own a gun.

Look. All I want is a freakin' satellite with a freakin' radio transmitter in its head!

That's sweet. Taking words out of context, using metaphorical notions in a literal sense. Been going since Man learned to communicate.
We are selfish beings. We use what we can how we can to benefit ourselves.

The law of conservation of energy states "Energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only be converted from one form to another".
This invention is using energy to create radio waves, which are electrolizing the salt water to turn the water into hydrogen and oxygen, which are then being burnt to turn them back into water.
As the reaction is completely reversible, there is no net change in energy, other than the loss caused by imperfect conditions.
Its basically the energy equivalent of cycling on the spot for 20 miles to charge a battery that allows the cycle to travel without cycling for 5 miles - i.e. pointless.
Looks pretty, although it is well known that high frequency radio waves excite the state of water (microwaves, etc). Its the scientific equivalent of sticking a metal spoon in a cup of water in your microwave.
The media are just a bunch of monkeys, and there are millions of scientists and schoolchildren around the world wondering how people could be so dumb as to actually believe this.
The only potential benefit of using RF to break down water into H2 and O2 is if it is more efficient than current methods, which will make it cheaper to create H2 fuel cells, but its certainly NOT an energy source.
