Technology

All of this convenience has an unfortunate downside. It is difficult to manage the awesome power that is embedded in today’s technology. Gaming system, tablets, smart phones are everywhere from our homes and desktops to our pockets and purses. Technology offers fun, interesting and educational alternatives. It is convenient and quickly turned to for entertainment or to keep the kids quiet on long road trips. Schools are using the Internet to communicate about assignments as well as directing students to use it to support learning as literature searches are now performed electronically. It can be a marvelous tool with a wealth of information. On the other hand, once the device is in a child’s hands, it presents parents with unprecedented challenges.

The amplitude of the stimulation that makes games/media exciting provides a heightened degree of sensory input into the nervous system, which can shift the threshold for engagement and excitation leaving normal life dull by comparison. “I’m bored” can become the complaint of the child who is used to this supercharged input stream. The high rate of interaction between the game and the gamer, or the viewed and the viewer with rapid shifts in input requires little reflection or working memory to get satisfaction from these activities. This may challenge the development of top-down modulation for the management of attention and working memory in the presence of distraction, a skill that is under construction in childhood. If shaped by gaming or media, how prepared is the young brain to face real world problem-solving such as those presented by demands of homework, requiring short-term memory, reflection, and manipulation of ideas to answer comprehension questions or write a research paper?

On a social level, the two dimensional world of the flat screen does not support the development of communication. It is estimated that as much as 93% of communication is non-verbal, leaving only 7% to the words themselves. Consequently there is significant loss of meaning and intent when reliant on the words alone as in texting/communication via keyboard. Furthermore, with the shield of anonymity provided by a device, there can be cover for intentionally hurtful language without the real time feedback of how the other is affected. In the case of video and media, while there is non-verbal communication (facial expressions, tone of voice, posture, gestures, timing, intensity, etc.) there is an absence of the dynamic experience of face-to-face social interaction. Skills such as social problem solving, compromise and conflict management may go underdeveloped. Consequently, the technology intended to improve the quality of our lives can instead lead to its deterioration through social disconnection, cyber-bullying, loneliness, social and work place challenges.

As parents, it is widely accepted that it is not healthy for your child’s development to allow him to eat candy all day every day at every meal. We know that he needs to have a balanced, nutritious diet with an occasional treat. The challenge technology poses is how to regulate it when it is both the broccoli and the Halloween candy. This is further complicated by the reality that a parent cannot supervise every minute the device is in a child’s hands and he knows how to navigate between programs and pages quicker than you can bat an eye. Boundaries need to be set. In fact, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends NO media for children under 2 years of age and no more than two hours a day of “high quality content” for children and teens. If a child doesn’t abide by the limits, more direct intervention needs to be considered. While there are parental controls that can be set and programs installed to monitor websites and duration of use, a motivated child can find ways around them. In some cases, more drastic measures may be necessary including, but not limited to, removing devices, cancelling Internet services and disconnecting TV satellite connections. It is important to intervene early, as the challenges can grow because the reliance on devices can become habitual. It is unfortunately not unusual to hear children say that their life is not worth living if they can’t have access to their on-line activity. The stakes are high and, while technology has made some things easier, parenting our children so that they have an appropriate relationship with devices and the world around them is not one of them. Unfortunately, there is not “an app for that”… yet!

With all the good that comes with technology, health and privacy are on a sacrificial alter. An examination of the history of Facebook, Google, Palantir and other tech companies and social media software companies reveals a history with the deep state at the heart of it all. They essentially stole the software from Leader Technologies, who found out first hand how evil the deep state is during the lawsuit. The social media software created by Leader Technologies was used for Twitter, Youtube, Facebook and many others for the purpose of the government to spy on Americans. While social media has the ability to keep us connected to friends, acquaintances, and family there are negative aspects beyond the surveillance issues such as sleeping problems, neurosis, addiction, warped sense of reality, etc.

Despite what we’ve been told by the government and media, namely that we are on the cutting edge of technology, the fact of the matter is that real scientific and technical knowledge is in fact many decades ahead of what the public are given. When we look into recent history we can see this fact demonstrated over and over again. In order to maintain power and control over the masses, the elite tightly control the development and release of advanced technology to the public so that they can control the outcome.

The internet, also known as the world wide web (www), has a completely different meaning to the controllers and that is the “World Wide Wiretap”. The reality is that the internet developed by the US Military via DARPA was given to the public not as a method of efficient communication but rather as a method of controlling and tracking the public; training people to divulge private information freely; and identifying and psychologically profiling each and every person’s habits and behaviour. One of the unintended consequences has been the free flow of knowledge about the controllers themselves. Consequently, the internet itself is being targeted for transformation under Internet 2 into a government/corporate control medium (like TV) where free flow of ideas is censored and prohibited and only approved information will be accessible and the concept of internet neutrality is destroyed.

While it is true that the technological advances have resulted in increased communication capabilities, it is also true that there is an equally dark side to electronic communications and that is the ability to track, monitor and control. Intelligence agencies now routinely monitor ALL email, cell phone and internet traffic. As the technology advances this control will only increase using technologies such as RFID to track a person’s every move and the products they own; the cashless society where all financial transactions will be monitored and the government will know everything you purchase and own; virtual worlds such as “Sentient World” will be used to duplicate in cyberspace every person living in the real world; and as has happened over the past several years microchip implants will used to track and trace your every move.

Published peer reviewed science already indicates that the current wireless technologies of 2G, 3G and 4G – in use today with our cell phones, computers and wearable tech – creates radiofrequency exposures which poses a serious health risk to humans, animals and the environment. Scientists are cautioning that before rolling out 5G, research on human health effects urgently needs to be done first to ensure the public and environment are protected.

In addition to the harmful effects on humans, our increases in radiofrequency technologies may be causing birds to fall from the sky all over the world (Beebe, Arkansas, Boston, Florida, Sweden, Esperence, Australia, Austin TX, Idaho, Southern Utah, Northern Utah, Somerset, England, New Jersey, Canada, Norman, OK, Tennessee, Oregon, Quebec City, Detroit, Louisiana, China, Italy, and Iran to name a few). The birds are being diagnosed with internal bleeding and massive trauma that is logically the result of high frequency microwaves likely associated with HAARP technology. Also, studies have brought out evidence to support the theory of colony collapse disorder (CCD) among honeybees due to bioactive microwave radiation from cell phones and their relay towers.

With all of these health and environmental problems with our current technology, how will we all be affected by 5G, the coming generation of technology so everyone can be surveilled in real time. 5G is the term used to describe the next-generation of mobile networks beyond the 4G LTE mobile networks commonly used today. 5G is intended to be the technology that allows the Internet of Things (IOT) to exist and tie all internet-connected smart devices together. Currently there is no standard for 5G networks in place and it will be a combination of a variety of frequencies and modulations. Industry is developing exactly what 5G will be as the standard ha not been set yet. It is assumed that 5G networks will not become commercially available until 2020 but several cities are rolling out 5G as test areas now.

The “genius” of the New World Order surveillance project lies in the fact that “consumers have been conned into paying out of their own pockets for the instruments that will spy on them and their families,” Putin said, speaking to an assembled tour group in the Kremlin in February 2016. “The average American home is now rigged like a maximum security prison with surveillance in every room recording everything you say and do.” Samsung has admitted that their SMART TVs listen and record customers’ every word, and that they send these recordings to unnamed third-party services.

Televisions and refrigerators are the most common household appliances to have incorporated wi-fi enabled SMART technology. But there are plenty more innocent-seeming household appliances gaining popularity and they can all be used to spy on you – the dishwasher, toaster, and coffee maker in your kitchen, the clothes dryer in your laundry, the clock radio in your bedroom, your thermostat, garage door opener, security alarms, and door locks. The list continues to grow. Caroline DuBois of Raleigh, North Carolina, said Putin was warm and friendly and spoke much better English than he gets credit for.  ‘I asked him for one piece of advice to take home with me.  He said to be very, very careful of SMART technology.  Do not trust it.  The truth is starting to emerge.’ (YourNewsWire)

Instead of prudent public health measures to ensure the public’s safety, governments such as the United States are quickly rolling out 5G networks in neighborhoods and are enacting various state and federal regulations to “streamline” and fasttrack the rollout. These regulations will end the ability of communities to halt and be a part of the decision making process in this massive 5G infrastructure buildout.

THOUSANDS OF MINI CELL TOWERS TO BE BUILT IN FRONT OF HOMES

5G will require the buildout of literally hundreds of thousands of new wireless antennas in neighborhoods, cities and towns. A cellular small cell or other transmitter will be placed every two to ten homes according to estimates. The purpose of this massive infrastructure build out of small cells, distributed antennae systems and microcells is to increase range and capacity in populated urban areas and prepare for the future 5G rollout. 5G frequencies will utilize higher frequencies that do not travel as far as the lower frequencies.

US state and federal governments are moving forth regulations which would make the right of way in front of homes as available sites for 5G transmitters – without consent of the property owners. In response, communities are protesting en mass as they do not want these transmitters built in front of their homes and communities want to be able to regulate the placement on right of ways.  Some municipalities are taking the case to the courts with litigation.

5G WILL USE HIGHER ELECTROMAGNETIC FREQUENCIES

5G will utilize multiple frequencies from those currently in use for cell phones and wireless to higher millimeter frequencies.

Today’s cellular and Wi-Fi networks rely on microwaves – a type of electromagnetic radiation utilizing frequencies up to 6 gigahertz (GHz) in order to wirelessly transmit voice or data. However, 5G applications will require unlocking of new spectrum bands in higher frequency ranges above 6 GHz to 100 GHz and beyond, utilizing submillimeter and millimeter waves – to allow ultra-high rates of data to be transmitted in the same amount of time as compared with previous deployments of microwave radiation.

MILLIMETER AND SUBMILLIMETER WAVES ARE BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE

Current investigations of wireless frequencies in the millimeter and submillimeter range confirm that these waves interact directly with human skin, specifically the sweat glands. Dr. Ben-Ishai of the Department of Physics, Hebrew University, Israel recently detailed how human sweat ducts act like an array of helical antennas when exposed to these wavelengths.

MECHANISM OF ACTION IS PROVEN

Research already indicates serious adverse effects from the wireless modalities in use today. Research studies from the Dielectric Spectroscopy Laboratory of the Department of Applied Physics, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, headed by Dr. Yuri Feldman, indicate that 5Gs millimeter and submillimeter waves will uniquely interact with human skin and  lead to preferential layer absorption. The number of sweat ducts within human skin varies from two million to four million.  Replicated peer research of these biological effects in laboratory research has been conducted internationally  and scientists consider this mechanism of action well proven (See documentation further down on this webpage).

5G FREQUENCIES ARE USED IN WEAPONS

For years, the U.S., Russian and Chinese defense agencies have been developing weapons that rely on the capability of this electromagnetic frequency range to induce unpleasant burning sensations on the skin as a form of crowd control. Millimeter waves are utilized by the U.S. Army in crowd dispersal guns called Active Denial Systems. Dr. Paul Ben-Ishai pointed to research that was commissioned by the U.S. Army to find out why people ran away when the beam touched them. “If you are unlucky enough to be standing there when it hits you, you will feel like your body is on fire.” The U.S. Department of Defense explains how “The sensation dissipates when the target moves out of the beam. The sensation is intense enough to cause a nearly instantaneous reflex action of the target to flee the beam.”

HUMAN SKIN WILL BE CLASSIFIED AS AN EXTREMITY ALLOWING HIGHER EXPOSURES

Our skin is our largest organ. Dariusz Leszczynski, PhD, Chief Editor of Radiation and Health has  stated that  the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection usually referred to as ICNIRP – is  developing recommendations for public exposure limits of these higher frequencies is planning to classify all the skin in the human body as belonging to the limbs rather than to the head or torso. Leszczynski cautioned that, “If you classify skin as limbs – no matter where the skin is – you are permitted to expose it more than otherwise.”

We assume that in terms of US exposure limits this means that the skin will be classified as “an extremity”. Extremities are allowed to be exposed to much higher radiation levels than the brain, torso, legs and arms. In the USA extremities -in regards to wireless radiation- are specifically wrists and hands, ankles and feet and the ear.

5G DEPLOYMENT WITHOUT HEALTH EFFECT EVALUATION

5G is being developed and implemented without adequate evaluation of the effect of this technology on human health after long term exposure to these frequencies. Peer reviewed research studies have found adverse effects from the electromagnetic  frequencies currently in use and that will be in use for this new technology.

“There is an urgent need to evaluate 5G health effects now before millions are exposed. We need to know if 5G increases the risk of skin diseases such as melanoma or other skin cancers,” stated Ron Melnick, the National Institutes of Health scientist, now retired, who led the design of the National Toxicology Program study on cell phone radio frequency radiation.

SMART METERS

Blacklisted News featured an article titled “Smart Meter Company Landis+Gyr Now Using Copyright To Try To Hide Public Records.”  What happened to transparency, especially in high tech science?  Is there information they don’t want the public to know?

As some background information, back in 2016 L+G took some legal action, which was chronicled in the Tech Dirt article “’Smart Grid’ Company Demands MuckRock Turn Over Info On Anyone Who Might Have Seen Public Records Docs Involving It.”

It would seem that L+G executives and legal department don’t understand the meaning of “public records” or they may be desperate to use legal harassment tactics to prevent information getting out that consumers and others have every legal right to know about products L+G manufactures and sells.

Enforcement tactics regrettably include consumers being forced—against their wills and by duress techniques, e.g., no AMI SM, no utility service to your home—by state laws, public utility commissions and utility companies to be placed on to homes, businesses and everywhere in between.  What is it that I’m not getting when AMI SMs are not mandated in the 2005 Energy Act [Public Law 109-58, The Energy Policy Act of 2005 §1252 Smart Metering], as that would be unconstitutional?

Furthermore, it’s a known principle in U.S. law that if a state law allows something, but federal law does not allow/permit it, then it’s illegal!  What happened at state levels mandating AMI SMs?  Clue: Check out the UN’s Agenda 21 and 2030 and why AMI SMs are an integral part of the global surveillance state!

There are numerous informational links embedded within the Tech Dirt article I encourage readers, especially those who have actions opposing AMI Smart Meters, to research as you may find some clues and nuggets of information that could help you define the issues you are opposing.

As an example, a Tech Dirt link to Stop Smart Meters! features an “Interview with EFF: How Smart Meters Violate our Right to Privacy” wherein the Electronic Frontier Foundation discusses “free speech, privacy, innovation, and consumer rights in a digital age.”

Then there’s MuckRock, the online platform that “files, tracks and share public records requests,” a most readily accessible and valuable resource for any legal action being researched which, according to Tech Dirt, is the platform that makes it easy for journalists and others to file FOIA requests.
