There are various techniques for torture that have been employed throughout history. Some effective methods include waterboarding, electric shocks, stress positions, and sensory deprivation. These techniques can cause immense physical and psychological pain, leading to the desired outcome of extracting information or breaking the will of the victim. However, it is important to note that torture is illegal and unethical, and its use is strictly prohibited by international law.
