Doofuss, most systems have just upgraded the software from 4G LTE to 5G.

Protesters believe cell towers are used to irradiate sheeple for behavioral modification and population control, among other purposes.

They do not seem to understand the difference between bandwidth and frequency.

So much misinformation in this thread. I needed a great laugh thanks guys.


Yeah it’s alarming. I will stupidly try to set a few things straight that I’m sure the tin foil hat brigade will ignore, but here goes:

1) “5G is not a frequency, it’s a data transfer speed. A lot of “5G” speed is using the same low band radio wave frequencies that you used to watch Sesame Street as a kid.

2) Because of the increased throughout that comes with 5G, you’ll actually be exposed to less electromagnetic radiation since the info transfer is so fast

3) #2 is a moot point because it doesn’t really matter how much of this electromagnetic radiation you’re exposed to in the first place because it’s fricking harmless. Are you afraid of the light emitted from the screen you’re looking at right now? Because as a reminder visible light is just the tiny segment of electromagnetic radiation that our eyes can detect. And visible light is a much, much, higher frequency than anything being used to transmit telecom data. Electromagnetic radiation isn’t really harmful until much higher frequencies than visible light (starting at ultraviolet)

4) Jeff Epstein didn’t kill himself

Thank you Cold Drink.

Finally an adult in the room.

Now back to building/upgrading death machines according to some of you goobers

I dunno, 5G tower kinda reminds me of one of the anal plugs we use.
I find comfort in that.

It’s a higher energy radiation wavelength.
Yet still below infrared, and well below visible light. Which, by the way, we are bombarded with by the sun to the tune of 1,000 watts per square meter. This works out to about 30 watts on something the size of your head. THIRTY fricking watts of high frequency electromagnetic radiation blasts you right in the head the entire time you are out in the sun.

And people are worried about 1% of that amount of power at a much lower and less harmful frequency.

It uses a different frequency which is a higher frequency than 4G.

As far as the new towers go, they require more of these meshing towers to cover the same area as before. The huge upside is it allows them to have substantially higher amount of devices connected.

The towers they are putting up in Baton Rouge are terrible. They are just placed in random spots with no thought of making them not look like they don't belong. I don't know if this is the case in a lot of other places, but they stick out bad there. Generic creosote poles stuck in neighborhoods that have buried utilities and decorative street lights. It's junk what the city just rubber stamped.

It isn't just higher frequencies that raise cause for concern. The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength. Shorter wavelengths need higher power output to go the same distances as longer wavelength signals. Exponentially so when we start talking about penetration through mediums like building materials.

Shorter wavelengths also have higher interaction rate with biological material instead of passing through. Your body will absorb more of this.

So when you combine the shorter wavelengths and the massive increase in power density, there are no studies showing this to be safe. It might be safe but that is not known at this point.

So far early studies indicate there may be valid data showing reduction in immune system performance when exposed to 5G frequencies.

5G needs a lot of testing before it can be determined to be safe.

This is patently false. 5G tech includes carrier frequencies in the 25-40Ghz range. Standard LTE carrier frequencies are all below 6Ghz.

Microwaves are below IR spectrum. Do you think that frequency is completely safe, especially long term?

also, the sun isn't blasting you non-stop 24/7, 365 days per year. You can protect yourself from exposure damage from the sun.

60 ghz is weaponized radiation frequency. At 60 ghz O2 is destabilized and will cause massive health problems. Not only humans but birds and insects will be decimated. It is a prison grid that will track your every move as well

Oof what if I told you some macro 5G sites are pumping 600Mhz

You are talking about mmWave

Short answer the 60ghz waves it uses shakes oxygen molecules like a microwave shakes water molecules

It’s totally unnecessary. I dont want 5 g forced on me. It’s time for people to slow down and enjoy life. The hell with all this crap like 5g
