Do you hear "The Hum"

Aliens:

Reaper "indoctrination" is an insidious means of corrupting organic minds, "reprogramming" the brain through physical and psychological conditioning using electromagnetic fields, infrasonic and ultrasonic noise, and other subliminal methods. The Reaper's resulting control over the limbic system leaves the victim highly susceptible to its suggestions.

Organics undergoing indoctrination may complain of headaches and buzzing or ringing in their ears. As time passes, they have feelings of "being watched" and hallucinations of "ghostly" presences. Ultimately, the Reaper gains the ability to use the victim's body to amplify its signals, manifesting as "alien" voices in the mind.

Indoctrination can create perfect deep cover agents. A Reaper's "suggestions" can manipulate victims into betraying friends, trusting enemies, or viewing the Reaper itself with superstitious awe. Should a Reaper subvert a well-placed political or military leader, the resulting chaos can bring down nations.

Long-term physical effects of the manipulation are unsustainable. Higher mental functioning decays, ultimately leaving the victim a gibbering animal. Rapid indoctrination is possible, but causes this decay in days or weeks. Slow, patient indoctrination allows the thrall to last for months or years.

i had a hum in my room once, was annoying trying to sleep with it, it seemed like it got louder as the days went on and i found out it was my tv vibrating on my desk, only way to stop it was switch off at the plug, the off switch (not standby) wouldn't stop it lol :(
 
I do hear this, not constantly, but it comes and gos and some nights it can be bad enough to keep me awake. I'd describe it as sounding like a slightly faulty external part of an two part commercial aircon unit, but there is nothing obvious near me (believe me I've looked).

I'm sure that my previous neighbor from hell suffered from it too although she chose to blame me and constantly harass me over it ... even when I could show that she still appeared to be hearing the noise when I had all the power off in my house. Fortunately she eventually decided to move away (she was renting) ... no problems with the current neighbors since then.
 
I can hear it stood outside at night. Where I live the silence is literally deafening at 2am onwards, and yet I hear a wierd noise that sounds a bit like a power transformer and sounds like it is about a mile or two away. It is not a constant hum either.

Yes everywhere and the silence is worse.

In that case what I'm hearing isn't tinnitus. If I put my fingers in my ears or put on my noise cancelling headphones(no music) the humming stops. I also don't hear it outside. Even if it's really quiet.

I'm gonna go see the doc in the next few days to see what they say.
 
To me it sounds like a factory because it is an uneven noise, like a rustling that is in a hum. Like humm ferred humm ferrred, you know what it sounds like to me, is the sounds from war of the worlds. When they are below that house and the robots are harvesting.

It could also be a power line. I know that high voltage electricity has a sound because you can hear it by the power sub stations. When we used to have mass blackouts i used to listen and it was dead silent apart from cars.
