Default Is there really a "Brown Note"?

Seems that some think so...

Activists preparing against the use of the 'Brown Note' at Democratic convention

And it's not even April 1st.

Never heard of it before, but I did a google and there seemed to be a number of sources on the subject.
I would like to have some for personal use.

I seem to recall that the guys from Mythbusters actually busted the myth of a brown note but I suspect they only wanted us to think they busted it. If they said it exists, there'd be a rash of new stories reporting spontaneous pant pooping because people built a brown note generator and pointed it at, say, a Starbucks or Taco Bell or something.

Have no idea it this is real or not, but it is hilarious to think about.
Date Line Denver: 5,000 with soiled pants.

Follow the link to the story. It's supposedly an audio frequency such that, if you're exposed to it, will cause you to involuntarily go #2. According to some, it's real.

Myth Busters tested this and found there to be NO such thing as a brown note. There was also a South Park episode about it years ago.

Here is a summary of the Myth Busters finding:
