Who do you complain to about private tenants?

What does harassment include?
Harassment covers a wide range of behaviors of an offensive nature. It is commonly understood as behavior that demeans, humiliates or embarrasses a person, and it is characteristically identified by its unlikelihood in terms of social and moral reasonableness.
How does a landlord decide if noise is excessive?
That means landlords must evaluate the problem and discern which tenant — the one complaining, or the one making noise — needs intervention. To do that, landlords must decide if the noise is normal, or excessive. The guidelines for determining when noise is “excessive” are situation-specific.
Do you have the right to make noise in your apartment?
All tenants have the right to “quiet enjoyment” of their rental property, but what that actually means can vary. Neighbors are allowed to make (some) noise in their homes, and landlords can only address the noise disturbances they have control over.
What should I do if my upstairs neighbour is making noise?
The upstairs neighbour was not required to take “extraordinary measures” to control noise from “normal living” activities. Respond immediately to noise complaints. This serves any number of objectives. For instance, it is the best opportunity to witness the noise firsthand.
Are there any cases of neighbor harassment using infrasonic sound?
[Note 05/04/21: This post appears to be an entry point for many who visit On being mobbed, but the mechanics of the harassment described here are not very sophisticated and will not be particularly useful to those who are being mobbed or otherwise harassed using WiFi extenders, WiFi access points, or illicit power line connections.

Which is an example of sound impeded by obstacles?
Ultrasonic sound, used in directional speaker technologies, is an example of sound that is impeded by obstacles since it falls back into the audible range on impact, its reference beam colliding with the carrier beam. The study of such sound waves is sometimes referred to as infrasonics, covering sounds beneath 20 Hz down to 0.001 Hz.
