Lie detectors are a lie!

Antipolygraph.org is a site devoted to debunking the idea that polygraphs can actually detect lies.

On this website, you will learn that polygraph "testing" is:

* Theoretically unsound and is not a valid diagnostic technique.


* Entirely dependent on the polygrapher lying to and deceiving the examinee.

* Biased against the truthful, resulting in many honest and law-abiding people being falsely accused each year.

* Easily beaten. The common notion that only sociopaths can beat the lie detector is nothing more than a myth. In fact, simple-to-learn techniques enable anyone to beat polygraph "tests." A full explanation of how to perform these techniques is provided in chapter four of The Lie Behind the Lie Detector.
