No Signs Of Highly Advanced Extraterrestrial Life?

Trigger

Just read “Trail runs cold on alien hotspots, for now”. This study was quite popular and was cited several times lately.

Seriously Flawed

I would guess, this study is seriously flawed, because:
  1. It is based on only the “NASA's WISE orbiting observatory”
  2. It is highly presumptuous to assume that other, extraterrestrial advanced societies would waste energy similar to our society (the above article mentions specifically the works of Freeman Dyson)
