That's because every time a new astronomical discovery is made that
cannot immediately be explained somebody ALWAYS says it must be ET.
Personally, because I am unable to find a flaw in the Great Flter
argument, I would be devastated if we detected ET; it would mean the
civilization we received a radio message from would have almost
certainly been destroyed by now, and the future of the human race is
likely to be very bleak indeed. I like to think the reason we haven't
detected any other civilization already is because we are the first,
not because we just haven't encountered the mysterious civilization
destroying phenomenon yet that every intelligent species always
eventually findsitself facing.
If you notice, our radiation to space has decreased as we have used
higher frequencies and more directed communication (like fiber optics
and directional antennae) and as we compress and encrypt the radiation
will look more and more thermal.

There is no known mechanism by which a Black Hole or a Neutron Star
could produce radio waves and nothing else, much less highly
circularly polarized radio waves.

That would produce massive amounts of X-Rays and Gamma Rays as well as
visible light, but there was none, only an intense burst of circularly
polarized radio waves emanating from a very compact object at
irregular times.
