I read that at the end of Tesla's life, there was a massive amount of
propaganda blowing around to keep people afraid of him, and his work. 
Most of it focused on Mad Scientists, Death Rays, Mind Controls, and a
near look alike appearance in the cartoon characters depictions to
Tesla himself.  He wanted to help Niger, a country build a radio
teletype while he was working on the Wardclif power transmission
experiment.  The government obviously didn't like the concept of him
leaving this country to do any kind of scientific work when they
couldn't be sure if he wouldn't develop a new idea there as opposed to
here, or in joint with their government for a higher price than america
would be willing to pay.  In other words they were also concerned that
he could also be bought, as it were.  So, they used the situation for
several different reasons, bonded to their initial military intrests to
take his money by legal action.  Marconi, was his employer, and at the
time he couldn't bill anyone for electrical power when it's being
transmitted through the air.  Moreover, meters, metering, and the
concepts of Thomas Edison, and DC vs Tesla's AC were still going on. 
There wasn't a real power company anywhere DC, or AC.  Edison's ideas
were ruled out as well as Tesla's, and 60Hz became the standard but,
not until Tesla was totally financially disabled as a man, and a
scientist.  The government would not allow him to continue his work
period.  In reality, Nikola, invented the very first microwave
magnatron, and eventually, it was used in radar.  We can cook with
microwaves, and do but, that's a death ray for a short distance.
