Having 5G waves surrounding us is going to be like living in a microwave oven.

Maybe this is why Samsung hasn’t released it’s S9 Active yet …

I've been seeing a ton of alarming articles about 5G. At first I thought it was the usual conspiracy theory stuff, but more and more people in the mainstream are now questioning the safety of the technology.

I heard the 5 g is a bad frequency because rain interferes with it’s transmission. I suspect it is in the range of microwave ovens as someone else mentioned.

I am concerned about 5G health wise also

We still have a land line since the narrow valley where we live has poor cell phone reception. We use a booster with the outdoor antenna mounted 60’ up in an oak tree (I put it up there when the wife was away baby sitting, because she would have never allowed me to do it). Lately we have wondered about the microwave/radiation effect and decided that, just to be on the safe side, turn off the booster at night and sometimes during the day. It has helped to wean us off the smart phones a little. In fact, since our contract expired last month, I have been looking at going back to a basic cell phone.

They’re going to use 5G to read minds. It’s all a conspiracy, you know—everything!

LOL!

Maybe a devious way for Trudeau and the Deep State to make Trump look bad to the Chinese at the recent Trade delegation.

The article completely fails to mention the little problems of spyware and industrial espionage, which are favorite pastimes of the Chinese. Is this article commissioned by the government of China as an attempt to deflect attention away from its on-going efforts to steal intellectual property and state secrets?

Thanks for posting the whole thing.

I better understand, now, all the 5G, 4G, etc. talk.

What is not explained is what the difference means to individuals with cell phones.

(Full disclosure: I’ve never used or owned a cell phone.)

“Having 5G waves surrounding us is going to be like living in a microwave oven.”

Nonsense.

There are 2 types of EM radiation regarding effects on animals and people. Ionizing and non-ionizing. Ionizing can change DNA, leading to cancer.

As you go up in frequency, from DC to ultra high energy gamma, the effects move from heating the surface, deeper and deeper, to ionizing. Where is the cutoff? UV. UltraViolet. In sunrays. UVC in particular is bad. UVA, not so much.

Where in the spectrum is all of this technology? Waaaay below UV of any kind. Waaay below Infrared, even. Below heat lamps. Below the radiation from space heaters. Below the radiation of an incandescent light bulb.

And they broadcast with less than a Watt of power. It all, on highest power, is less dangerous than the infrared heat given off by a 3 Watt dashboard light in your car.

Hold one of those dashlights to your head, heck, stick it in your mouth, you won’t get cancer, nor get heated up like a microwave oven. That dashlight gives off more power, at a higher frequency, than any cell phone. So does your non-LED flashlight. So does your dog—it gives off infrared warmth. And so does the sun, when you turn your face up to feel the warmth. The heat your face receives from the sun is more power, and higher frequency, than any cellphone. Or router. Or powerlines in your walls. Etc.

So much crap floating around by people who don’t have basic science knowledge.

“There are 2 types of EM radiation regarding effects on animals and people. Ionizing and non-ionizing.”

That’s my understanding. Is it possible that the fast switching (sharp edges) occurring in digital circuits could emit spikes of ionizing radiation?

Is it possible that the producer of microwaves in a microwave oven produces ionizing-frequency spikes.

“Is it possible that the fast switching (sharp edges) occurring in digital circuits could emit spikes of ionizing radiation?”

No. There are strict laws against EMI—ElectroMagnetic Interference. UL and other independent test labs verify. Often the tiny writing on labels of electronic equipment say they comply with FCC rule xxx. That encompases it.

“Is it possible that the producer of microwaves in a microwave oven produces ionizing-frequency spikes”

It might inside, but not outside. They are faraday caged against EM leakqge, and also tested for compliance.

You have very good electronic knowledge re leading edge spikes, btw. Intereresting topic. Sharp transitions in a voltage/current waves send harmonics screaming out. The sharper the edge, the higher amplitude the harmonics. They come across the radio as that noise...ultimate is spark gap generator. They drown out everything. If you use an antenna as 1 part of it, you would knock signals out all over the place. Illegal as hell, just sayin...lol.
