A recent study by Yale researchers published in Cell Reports found that exposure to wireless radiofrequency (RF) radiation — emitted by cell phones, cell towers, and Wi-Fi — interfered with neurodevelopment and increased the expression of autism-related genes in laboratory models of the fetal brain. This was a state-of-the-art study using human cortical organoids — tiny, lab-grown models of the developing human brain. Created from stem cells, these organoids form many of the same early brain structures seen in a fetus. They are not full brains and have no consciousness, but they closely mimic early fetal brain development, and scientists use them to study how environmental exposures such as air pollution, microplastics, and diesel fuel could impact the brain. The experiments used a wireless transmitter operating at Bluetooth frequency and power, at exposure levels 4,000 times lower (0.025%) than the FCC’s limit for allowable human exposure to RF wireless radiation. “Our findings revealed that RF-exposed cortical neurons exhibited increases in Autism Spectrum Disorder-associated gene expression and dendritic spine density, characteristics of patients on the autism spectrum.” How 'bout a garage door opener that turns out to have v. strong wifi. I felt it even outside the garage by a least 10 feet, so I wonder how the person whose bed it's underneath will be affected? Techs wouldn't come and replace it w. a difft one because they said it's now "used," even tho it was only their testing of it that made it used... Same w. banks of SCE "smart meters," 5 of which are housed next to one apartment. 2 successive tenants got nasal infections requiring heavy antibiotic usage while subsisting next to them. Infections awfully close to the brain. I am the only person in the building who "opted out" with a pretty hefty financial penalty. I keep my cell phone on airplane mode at all times, unless I need to make a text or speaker-call, which is very rarely. My office computer, and a monitor in the living room for Netflix, are both hardwired via ethernet, w. the modem way out at street level so I don't feel it. Electromagnetic Sensitivity (EMS) is a federally recognized condition by which individuals suffer adverse health effects due to electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure. It is also commonly referred to as Electrosensitivity, Electro-hypersensitivity (EHS), microwave syndrome/illness and radiofrequency sickness. I do support the commission’s enunciated goals for advancing “equity in the provision of and access to digital communication services and products for all people of the United States, without discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, or disability.” But I also believe that forcing exposure – even as part of a genuine effort to provide broadband access – is itself a form of discrimination as a matter of law. More importantly, it is fundamentally inequitable because it leads to great harm: people with severe symptoms are functionally excluded from public participation since almost all public spaces are flooded with RF, and those with wireless facilities nearby cannot even take refuge in their homes. Ethernet is cheaper more secure and physically safer than wifi, which most tech pros will affirm.
