    WI-FRIED?

    AUSTRALIAN BROADCASTING COMPANY: CATALYST
    Forbidden Knowledge TV | Jul 14, 2016 | Alexandra Bruce
    [QUOTE]This documentary by Australia's ABC TV may change the way you look at your cell phone.
    A scientific paper bravely published by a leading radiation biologist, Prof. Dariusz Leszczynski now allows top neurologists, like Keith Black, MD of Los Angeles' Cedars-Sinai Hospital to issue warnings to their patients about the dangers of cell phone use, which he describes as "Cooking the brain".
    The cell phone industry retaliated against Leszczynski by lobbying to have his funding stopped and in the meantime, insurance companies in the US stopped coverage for health damages related to cell phone use.
    Brain tumors associated with cell phone use has replaced leukemia as the number one child-killer. Men who store cell phones in their pockets are assured lower sperm counts and there is a rash of young women contracting breast cancer, in the very spot where they tuck their cellphones in their bras.
    You can expect to receive the following measurable doses of radiation, using a standard radiation measuring device: 1) Microwave oven: 800 microvolts, 2) WiFi Router: 800 microvolts, 3) Tablet PC: 2,000 microvolts (watching a movie), 4) Smartphone: 40,000 microvolts (Samsung S3). This last device emits over a thousand times the normal background radiation level of 30 microvolts.
    The use of cell phones and other wireless technologies is being called the next 'casualty catastrophe,' after tobacco and asbestos. iPhones now all contain a legal disclaimer page with fine print, which cannot be enlarged and which is relatively difficult to locate within the phone's navigation. It discloses the dangers of radiation exposure from cell phones and advises users to keep the device at least 10mm from the body - but it's next to impossible to find on the device.
    After conducting studies, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) in Lyon, France has officially classified the radio wave radiation emitted by cellphones and other household devices (to say nothing of SmartMeters - which is a whole other video!) as a Class 2B Carcinogen (a possible cause of cancer). At the same time, a US wireless lobbying group called the CTIA assures us that "Radio waves from cell phones are safe" and studies paid for by the cell phone industry claim that, "Cell phone use causes no biological damage."
    However, independent studies consistently report serious health effects, ranging from DNA damage, a 300% reduction in sperm counts, 290% more brain tumors, autism and birth defects.
    Former senior White House adviser, Epidemiologist, Dr. Devra Davis, who appears in this film testified to the US Senate and has given a hair-raising reports about the back-stories behind these contradictory scientific reports: The independent scientists who reported on the ill effects of cell phones found themselves under attack by the cellphone industry, who would attempt to get them fired and to get their funding taken away or else accuse them of fraud. When that didn't work, they hired inexperienced scientists who didn't know anything about the subject to *look* like they were replicating the incriminating experiments - and when all of the above didn't work, they wrote an internal memo, in which they stated, "We war-gamed the science." To prove a point, one scientist wrote a paper on the subject, laden with obvious errors, which was published in numerous science journals and translated in over 15 countries.
    Journalist, Anthony Gucciardi had previously proven how easy it is for industry to plant fake science in such publications in the very similar case involving the drug Prozac, which was long ago proven to increase the incidence of suicide among users and to cause violent behavior in the 1980s - but hidden from the public until 2005 until there was a BBC exposé.
    In response, the manufacturers hired their own scientists to prove how "great" Prozac was. However, producers of anti-depressants today are forced to disclose these side effects, which one reads in their accompanying manuals or overhear, in the blindingly-fast and unintelligible disclosure statements that run during television advertisements for these products.
    People who know the details believe that once the public becomes aware of these dangerous side effects, the public outcry will be worse than it was for cigarettes.
    Dr. Louis Slesin, editor of Microwave News since 1981 says, "The system is broken, nobody has been told the truth. It's crazy."
    He says that it's one thing for the tobacco industry to finally admit to the dangers of smoking tar and nicotine, after centuries of being on the market because the science, which would eventually prove that cigarettes and secondhand smoke damaged human health did not yet exist when tobacco was initially marketed - but cell phones were launched after preliminary science was already available as to its inherent dangers and these products were released into the public without any safety studies, whatsoever!
    The point is to take action. Action is already being taken in Europe: In Italy, a landmark supreme court ruling found a "causal link" between cell phone use and brain tumors. In France, WiFi is being taken down and replaced with cabled Internet in schools and countries from Germany to Israel and Finland are moving to stop cell phone sales to kids. In the UK, children under the age of 18, have been barred from cell phone use for several years, already.
    But of course, in the Good Ol' USA, the former chief lobbyist for the wireless industry, Thomas Wheeler was appointed by President Barack Obama to head up the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), which regulates the safety of wireless devices, in yet another astonishing conflict-of-interest in the choice of appointed US Federal Regulators, who better resemble wolves guarding the sheep than advocates for the health of the public at-large.

    Electromagnetic Fields And Their Effects

    By David on 2 September 2016 GMT David Dees Art, Medical/Health



    Electromagnetic Fields and Their Effects
    Posted on September 1, 2016



    ‘Can you see and feel its effects in the air? Of course you can, but you don’t know how
    to identify it correctly! It’s all around us like an ocean of electromagnetic frequencies that
    we are swimming in, which are pulsed out from many more sources than we can begin to
    imagine and, more confoundedly, not accept that they are causing damage to all living
    elements, especially young children who are most vulnerable.

    I’m talking about electromagnetic fields (EMFs) or radiofrequencies (RFs), which have become
    so ubiquitous that we haven’t stopped to realize what’s been happening to us—especially
    children exposed to Wi-Fi in schools—and how trees [4] and other plant life are being damaged.

    Where do these EMFs come from?

    Microwaves that are emitted by cell phone and mast towers, cell phones, AMI smart meters for
    electric, natural gas and water utilities, microwave ovens, and all ‘smart’ appliances that contain
    ZigBee chips, which are two-way radio transmitters operating using microwave technologies.’

    Action alert: 5G cellular technology will blanket planetary life with ultra-high microwave frequencies

    Posted by: Jonathan Landsman

    The 5G revolution is rushing toward us and it will bring a whole new era of harm from ultra-high
    microwave frequency radiation. And those who raise their voices against the danger to our health
    and our human rights to safety have been the subject of harassment, intimidation and attempts
    to silence them.

    On July 14, the FCC voted to unleash 5G in the United States, approving sweeping Spectrum
    Frontiers rules to make spectrum bands above 24 GHz available for 5G. Even though serious
    health risks are associated with the proliferation of cell phone technology, the attitude of the
    FCC seems to be ‘full speed ahead and damn the torpedoes.’’

    The common disease-causing link between GMOs and WiFi technology, science reveals
    by: Jonathan Landsman | May 2, 2019
    https://www.naturalhealth365.com/gmo...wifi-2962.html

    (NaturalHealth365) "A shocking six out of ten American adults (more than half of the population) currently suffer from some form of chronic disease – including such potentially life-threatening illnesses as heart disease, diabetes and cancer. Many experts note that the prevalence of chronic disease has increased steadily – over the last 30 years – due to the widespread consumption of GMO foods and use of wireless technology.

    Make no mistake about it: we are experiencing a national epidemic of chronic disease – throughout the Western world. Of course, agrochemical producers and the wireless industry refuse to accept any responsibility. But, it’s hard to ignore the scientific evidence.

    For example, an award-winning researcher recently published a review confirming the damaging effects of WiFi. And, as you’ll soon see in this article, the dangerous link between WiFi and GMOs is undeniable.

    Award-winning researcher reveals: Radiation from WiFi and cell phones is an “important threat to human health”
    In a review published in July 2018 in Environmental Research, Dr. Martin L. Pall – a 2013 winner of a Global Medical Research award – showcased the connection between radiofrequency radiation and chronic disease.

    According to Dr. Pall, a calcium channel in the cells opens erroneously when the body’s internal electrical environment is disrupted by wireless signals from WiFi and cell phones. This inappropriate opening can cause too much calcium to enter the cell – resulting in the production of a compound called peroxynitrite.

    Peroxynitrite can also be formed when nitric oxide interacts with other free radicals. And, while nitric oxide is a beneficial natural vasodilator – that can relax arteries and lower blood pressure – under certain circumstances it can actually react with other free radicals to cause serious health problems.

    Cell studies have shown that cell phone and wireless radiation can cause an increase in nitric oxide – which also leads to the overproduction of peroxynitrite.

    And the fact is: peroxynitrite puts the body at risk for chronic disease.

    Bottom line: constant exposure to microwave radiation – through the use of cell phones and wireless networks – sets the stage for many of the chronic diseases plaguing the nation.

    Don’t ignore this little-known fact: Peroxynitrite is the “smoking gun”
    Dr. Pall is not the only scientist warning of the threat from increased peroxynitrite caused by wireless and cell phone radiation.

    In a scientific review published in Physiological Reviews, the authors warned that peroxynitrite could cause cell death and apoptosis (or programmed cell suicide), thereby triggering both acute and chronic disease.

    The scientists maintain that the compound causes harm in a variety of ways, including altering the function of proteins, degrading membrane structure, disrupting mitochondrial function and stimulating the production of inflammatory chemicals such as interleukin.

    Specifically, scientists have linked peroxynitrite with cardiac dysfunction, neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes, atherosclerosis, ischemic heart disease and heart failure. If that weren’t frightening enough, peroxynitrite is also associated with stroke, inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, asthma, periodontal disease and cancer.

    New scientific review finds devastating harm linked to WiFi technology
    To conduct the review, Dr. Pall and his team examined 23 controlled scientific studies (not anecdotal reports) along with 16 other reviews. And they identified a string of ”very serious” harmful effects from exposure to WiFi and other EMFs (electromagnetic fields).

    These effects include oxidative stress, impact on cell DNA, calcium overload, neuropsychiatric effects and reproductive problems in males stemming from decreased testosterone. What’s really troubling was the discovery of lower sperm counts in men – within technologically-advanced countries around the world.

    Researchers called the effects on male fertility, “very worrying.” The review also shed light on specific properties of harms from radiation.

    The team noted that electromagnetic frequencies or fields (EMFs) affect young people disproportionately – and that pulsed EMFs are more active than non-pulsed (all wireless systems are pulsed). NaturalHealth365 has been warning the public for years about these technologies – especially the so-called ‘smart meters’ – that measure energy usage in the home.

    Most devastating of all, the scientists reported that the effects may be not only “cumulative,” but “irreversible. ”

    Glyphosate-soaked GMO foods only add to the harmful health effects
    The use of glyphosate, the active ingredient in the weed killer Roundup, has increased almost 15-fold since Roundup Ready crops were introduced.

    These GMO plants, including Roundup Ready corn and soybeans, have been engineered to withstand being doused with the toxic chemical –which has been labeled a “probable carcinogen” by the World Health Organization’ s International Agency for Research on Cancer.

    Glyphosate is linked with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, with over 600 lawsuits currently alleging that Roundup causes the disease and that its manufacturer, Monsanto, failed to warn consumers of the risk.

    And, finally, here’s the connection between consuming GMO foods and WiFi … according to Diane Testa, Ph.D., a senior lecturer at Western New England University, eating GMO foods causes increased exposure to glyphosate – which triggers the body to make peroxynitrite. (not good!)

    Again, there are many scientists, including Dr. Pall (mentioned earlier in this article) that warn of the threat coming from the increased production of peroxynitrite – caused by exposure to wireless technology and eating GMO foods.

    Dr. Testa notes that Dr. Pall has implicated glyphosate in a litany of chronic diseases, including stroke, heart attack, diabetes, cancer, asthma, arthritis, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases.

    With the application in the United States of 1.8 million pounds of glyphosate since 1974 – and the increasing usage of WiFi in homes, schools, stores and hospitals – researchers warn that we should expect “massive cumulative WiFi effects in many people.”

    It’s a frightening concept, but we must remember – there are steps we can take to limit our exposures and lower the risk of harm.

    Be sure to avoid GMOs by buying certified organic foods and, whenever possible, choose “wired” electronic devices over wireless.

    Dr. Testa points out that over half the countries in the E.U. ban GMO crops. And, in 2011 the Council of Europe passed Resolution 1815, which requires taking measures to reduce exposure to wireless devices.

    No doubt, the United States should follow suit, says Dr. Testa. Hopefully, it won’t be too late.

    I think we have to get some of these fears into perspective.

    How many people die directly or indirectly from road transport, alcohol or poor diet compared to EMF 'radiation'?

    To confirm the harm caused by radio frequencies, surely the first place to look is at those people working for years in RF fields orders of magnitude higher than the public are ever exposed to. People like me for example! This data will not be suppressed because colleagues talk to each other. Unions make sure no one works with undue exposure, and illnesses caused by work-related issues (especially if it was to affect tens of thousands) is not something that can be overlooked.

    I've worked with RF for most of my working life. I am not aware of any of my colleagues suffering any illnesses more than the general public. This is only anecdotal evidence, but it's a good place to start.

    I heard a story (which I hope isn't apocryphal) about a new communications link tower being built on the edge of a housing estate. All sorts of vague maladies started being reported from the locals once someone put word around that these masts were 'dangerous'. (Usual stuff: nose bleeds, lethargy, headaches, etc.) The engineer in charge of the relatively minor project said: "F***ing hell! If it's having this effect now, just imagine the carnage when we actually turn it on!!"

    No one worries about high power UHF TV transmitter radiation, or the very high power microwave radar around military and civilian airports. Why not?

    Engineers and technicians working in this field have little time for those who propagate dubious data to the genuinely worried. Radio frequencies from ELF to microwaves have been around long enough for any dangers to the public to have been well documented by now.

    According to Claire Edwards..."The way to stop commercial companies is to eliminate the profit base. Our need for wireless technologies supports the industry that is endangering humanity, and that means we need to eliminate wireless technology".

    Very difficult at this point? How do we return to "human" supportive tech? These two in the video gave up their mobile phones.

    Robert Kennedy, Jr. Assembles Legal Team to Sue FCC over Wireless Health Guidelines
    JANUARY 21, 2020
    https://childrenshealthdefense.org/n...th-guidelines/

    "Robert Kennedy Jr. Assembles Legal Team to Sue FCC – The team includes RFK, Jr., IRREGULATORs’ Attorney Scott W. McCollough & Dafna Tachover

    Robert Kennedy, Jr., Chairman of Children’s Health Defense (CHD) has committed to be proactive on the concerns regarding excessive exposure of our children to 5G and wireless radiation. To fulfill this promise, CHD will be submitting a lawsuit on February 3rd against the FCC for its December 4, 2019 decision to decline to review its 1996 guidelines, and for its determination that the guidelines are protective of human health.

    The Dec. 4 determination provides a rare opportunity to sue the FCC and expose its disregard for public health that has been causing so many injuries and deaths, including among children. We will be representing the many children who have been injured. This is the opportunity we have been waiting for; a successful lawsuit on this will be a game changer.

    We need your help to raise $100,000 to fund this effort.

    To have the best chances of succeeding, we have assembled an ideal team of Attorneys to lead this case! Each one brings different strengths to the case:

    Robert F. Kennedy Jr., CHD’s Chairman, is a leading Environmental Attorney who has been involved with many groundbreaking lawsuits including the recent successful cases against Monsanto. He was a senior attorney for the NRDC and now leading cases for the protection of children’s health rights.

    Scott W. McCollough is the Attorney who is representing the IRREGULATORS in their lawsuit against the FCC, a case that will help expose a multi-billion-dollar fraud by Telecom companies. Scott has decades of experience as a Telecommunications and Administrative Law Attorney, leading the type of lawsuits we are submitting against the FCC.

    Dafna Tachover is an expert on wireless and 5G health effects and has recently been brought on board at CHD to spearhead the Stop 5G effort. Dafna brings specialized knowledge and experience for this case. She is an Attorney, and holds a MBA, and has a Telecommunications background. She has been involved in cases focusing on wireless harms including a Supreme Court case in Israel against Wi-Fi in schools, a case that led to the first limitations on Wi-Fi worldwide!

    We need to raise $100,000 and we hope that you will support this rare chance to take action against the FCC. Any donation would be helpful."

    Six Italian Courts Have Ruled that Cell Phones Cause Brain Tumors
    JANUARY 21, 2020
    https://childrenshealthdefense.org/n...-brain-tumors/

    "By Martine Vriens and Dafna Tachover

    [Note: This article has been adapted and updated, with permission, from an earlier article published on May 29, 2019 by We Are the Evidence.]


    On January 13, 2020, Turin’s Court of Appeals confirmed a 2017 decision determining that a former Telecom Italia worker’s acoustic neuroma (a benign tumor in the ear) was caused by his mobile phone use. This is the sixth time that an Italian court has affirmed a causal link between cell phone use and brain tumors, including decisions by the High Court of Italy.

    The Appellate court reached its decision after a review of the evidence and after receiving the opinion of two court-appointed experts. The experts referred the court to studies indicating that individuals who speak on their phones for an average of 30 minutes a day for at least 10 years increase their risk of developing head tumors. After considering this evidence, the Appellate court in Turin stated, “There are solid elements to affirm a causal role between the exposure of the person to radiofrequencies from mobile phones and the disease that arose.”

    … studies provided by the defense—which denied a causal link—were mostly industry-funded and, therefore, should be given less weight because of conflicts of interest.
    Crucially, the Turin court stated that the studies provided by the defense—which denied a causal link—were mostly industry-funded and, therefore, should be given less weight because of conflicts of interest. Studies by members of the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) and the European Commission’s Scientific Committee on Emerging and Newly Identified Health Risks (SCHENIHR) also suffer from conflicts of interest, according to the Turin court, because these organizations likewise receive funding from industry. The World Health Organization’s (WHO’s) International EMF Project and many countries around the world have adopted the industry-funded ICNIRP’s recommendations as their safety guidelines. Thus, these statements by the court—calling out the influence of industry funding and conflicts of interest—are extremely significant.

    The Turin court’s ruling affirmed the decision of the court of Ivera from 2017. Roberto Romeo, age 57, used his cell phone for three to four hours of each working day for 15 years. He was diagnosed with acoustic neuroma in 2010, and his acoustic nerve had to be removed. As reported in The Guardian, “A medical expert estimated the damage to Romeo at 23% of his bodily function, prompting the judge to make a compensation award of €500 per month to be paid by INAIL, a national insurance program covering workplace accidents.”

    Earlier court decisions

    Acoustic neuromas are tumors that develop on the main nerve leading from the inner ear to the brain. This nerve influences balance and hearing. Pressure from an acoustic neuroma can cause hearing loss, ringing in the ear and unsteadiness, occasionally also interfering with brain functioning. Acoustic neuroma is also known as “vestibular schwannoma” because it develops on the Schwann cells covering the nerve. Of note, the U.S. government’s $25 million National Toxicology Program cell phone study found that exposure to cell phone radiation caused schwannoma-type tumors.

    Newsweek mistakenly reported the Ivrea case as the first Italian ruling linking cell phones and acoustic neuromas, but it was in fact the second. The first ruling, made by a court in Brescia on December 10, 2009 and affirmed by the High Court of Italy in 2012, granted worker’s compensation to an industrial plant’s financial manager, Mr. Marcolini, who developed a tumor after using cell and cordless phones for five to six hours a day for 12 years. Marcolini was diagnosed as having a benign tumor on the trigeminal nerve, which controls facial muscles and sensations. As in Turin, the Brescia court ignored industry-funded studies—declaring them to be biased—and instead relied on the expert opinion of Swedish professor Lennart Hardell, an oncology specialist and cancer epidemiologist with “a focused interest in environmental risk factors for cancer.”

    The next (third) ruling to link cell phone use and acute nerve disease was made by a Florence court in April 2017. The Florence court ordered INAIL to compensate a salesperson who developed an acoustic neuroma after using the phone for two to three hours a day on the job for 10 years.

    An occupational hazard

    On January 30, 2019, an Italian court in the city of Monza ruled that exposure to cell phone radiation caused an airport employee’s acoustic neuroma brain tumor. The employee had used a cell phone for well over 10 years for his work. After being diagnosed with an acoustic neuroma in 2010, the employee was declared (in 2011) 68% disabled and permanently unfit for work. In 2014, he applied to INAIL, claiming a causal link between his workplace exposure to radiation and the acoustic neuroma and asking that his tumor be recognized as an occupational disease. The Monza court concurred that the tumor had permanently incapacitated him and ruled it to be an occupational disease. When the defense appealed the decision, Italy’s Supreme Court upheld it.

    Basing their determination on the duration of exposure, the types of devices used, the type of pathology and their review of the literature, they determined the evidence to be sufficient for a causal link, even in the absence of absolutely conclusive scientific evidence.
    Over a period from 1994 to 2010, the airport employee’s job had exposed him to high levels of radiofrequency and microwave radiation from a variety of antennas and high-frequency equipment, including altitude signal repeaters, weather radars, satellite antennas and airplane equipment. In addition, the performance of his job required the use of numerous radiation-emitting devices, including mobile phones, two always-on PCs and signal repeaters (GSM and DECT). Holding the phone on the left side of his head, the employee used a Siemens DECT (cordless) phone, a Nokia and later a Samsung cell phone for more than four hours a day, with phone sessions lasting up to 45 consecutive minutes. Several times, the employee and his colleagues reported the high levels of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) and radiation to their employer, asking for the EMFs and radiation to be measured, but higher-ups ignored these requests.

    In the Italian legal system, judges can appoint technical experts called court technical experts (CTUs). In the Monza case, the experts and technical advisers assigned to evaluate the case conducted research into acoustic neuroma and its risk factors. Basing their determination on the duration of exposure (exposure to high-frequency EMR for a considerable number of hours per day for over 10 years), the types of devices used, the type of pathology and their review of the literature, they determined the evidence to be sufficient for a causal link, even in the absence of absolutely conclusive scientific evidence. They also referenced the Brescia court’s decision and the studies cited in that decision. Their conclusion was that the development of the left auditory nerve neuroma was related to the employee’s workplace exposures and that the tumor had caused a reduction in the employee’s mental and physical health.

    Thus, in case after case, Italian courts have determined that the radiofrequency and microwave radiation emitted by cell phones can cause acoustic-neuroma-type brain tumors. The importance of these decisions should not be underestimated, particularly given the courts’ recognition that when exposure to electromagnetic radiation becomes a necessary part of the job, acoustic neuromas are an occupational risk."

    This might be relevant regarding the above mentioned Swedish professor Lennart Hardell.

    From the journal Science Based Medicine about Dr Hardell:

    Quote Those of you who are regular readers of SBM [Science Based Medicine] may have seen a post by David Gorski commenting on another cell phone cancer review article in which the work of Hardell was given prominence. Gorski had this to say about Hardell: “Whenever one group of researchers keeps finding a result that no other group seems able to replicate or that otherwise disagrees with what everyone else is finding, that’s a huge red flag for me. Remove those studies, and even the wisp of a hint of a shadow of the association between cell phone use and cancer found in this study disappears. I’d have a lot more confidence in this seeming association in “high quality” studies if the association didn’t depend upon a single researcher and if this researcher was not also known for being an expert witness in lawsuits against mobile phone companies.” It would appear the Hardell himself has a conflict of interest.

    Given the preponderance of evidence (and not just in this case) indicating that continued exposure to high levels of emfs from reliable sources that are not industry-funded, the attacks on Hardell can most likely be traced back to the industry itself, as per usual.
