Oddbean new post about login | logout Bro what the fuck is that shit, the whole thing about 5G being bad is that 5G radio waves might be strong enough in frequency to actually affect humans in small levels. All I remember seeing evidence for is that it does alter something enough that our sweat comes out different. Which isn't killer but means something is going on at a micro level that might need to be looked into. I remember finding out that the reason a bunch of people were getting sick from 5G though in cities is because the "5G cities" were planned so retardedly that they basically put cell phone towers on the tops of block buildings.
We’re BATHING in every other damn frequency under the sun, it’s just that narrow part that affects us? How about it ALL affects us if you want to talk about damage? Nobody ever talked about the radar altimeters, 2/3/4G, or the satellite frequencies (higher energy than 5G by a good margin, nearing infrared) they’ve been marinating in since the 90’s. We’re absolutely awash with all kinds of radio waves, from every part of the spectrum already. Now that they’ve shipped out legions of 5G routers for homes, we should be seeing a huge uptick in 5G illnesses in the markets they opened up. It just seems disingenuous to suddenly start caring about all our EM exposure because the latest and greatest spectrum is higher than the ones before it. Yeah, it’s a lot stronger, but why ONLY this one when the average fat is living near wifi routers, power lines, unlicensed chink devices, and door sensors? It’s the diet coke thing all over again, ignoring a mountain of unhealthy practices to hyperfocus on one small but detrimental element. The 5G stuff is more dangerous because it adds yet more bandwith for surveillance and control, not because some rando croat published a paper showing it boils water in a lab.
@:snufkinspringtune: :cirnofortnite: :watamelon_boo... @Springtime for Zeon (Woggy Mk II) putting cell sites and other fixed radio on top of buildings is entirely normal and has been for years. hell, so is putting them inside buildings. pick a multi tenant commercial building and look for a telecom closet on the top floor: odds are you'll see equipment from one of the big cell carriers. there absolutely are places where the radiation is a safety risk: directly in front of the antennas on the roof. anything remotely usable for high bandwidth communications is in the microwave band, and it all affects meatbags in about the same way, by being readily absorbed by water and converted to heat. if you're not standing directly in front of the antenna, you're receiving milliwatts at the absolute most. i dunno if android phones have apps that show signal in dBm, but that's an absolute measurement of power. they've gotta be on top of buildings or even on lamp posts for density. before the smartphone era you could slap some antennas on a tower hundreds of feet high and that was plenty of bandwidth for an entire town's worth of voice calls and text messages. but now you need *much* higher radio density; there's only so much useful space in the electromagnetic spectrum, less so in the bands licensed for use, and it's shared between all devices in the physical space where they can pick up each other's transmissions. so we've gotta make the broadcast domains smaller: put the cell sites closer to the ground, reduce transmit power levels, and carefully arrange cell sites and directional antennas to avoid overlapping channels within your licensed spectrum. you need more places where you convert stuff from a low bandwidth shared medium (the 4G/LTE/5G bands) to a high bandwidth dedicated medium (optical fiber). https://media.wolfgirl.bar/5d279fe0791578f73efb929dcb1aa86b8b9bc125cfe4dda0bac553609d4332cb.jpg
nobody knows if living in microwave soup 24/7 is harmful or not what can be said for sure is it isn't natural my gut says it probably isn't great but it's low priority compared with all the environmental poisons we're living with I don't like 5G because retards are going to try to blanket the countryside with antennas so they can watch the latest 8K netflix trash wherever they are
