Turns out that day-calling #crickets (as opposed to night-calling species) tune their #chirps to avoid the same #bandwidth as other nosy #insects (like #cicadas). We know #birds do this type of thing ("#acoustic #niche partitioning"). Interesting to see it in insects.

The circadian calling activity of a lebinthine cricket with high-frequency calls is unaffected by cicada choruses in the day
Background Many factors can influence circadian rhythms in animals. For acoustically communicating species, both abiotic cues (such as light and temperature) and biotic cues (such as the activity of other animals), can influence the timing of signall…PeerJ

Have You Tried Turning It Off and On Again: Rethinking Tech Regulation and Creative Labor by Cory Doctorow
"No one listens to a song because they loved the record executive who signed the performer’s royalty statement or read a book because they wanted to reward the hard work of the lawyer who drafted the author’s contract. A copyright system that makes intermediaries richer and creative workers poorer is indefensible."
