A grandparent reports concerns about children’s anxiety, sleep and chronic complaints, and improved perso…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am grandmother of 21 and great grandmother of 9. I see children getting anxious, not sleeping well and not as vibrant and active as they used to be. I also have been affected and no longer put my phone in my bedroom and am noticing that I sleep so much better. Sleep is when our bodies heal. I notice that my grandchildren have chronic illness complaints. Our children need to be protected. Please look at peer review studies which show EMF harms. Let's protect all of us! Please update clear science and guidelines for these devices!

Reports temporary difficulty seeing after oncoming headlights and asks whether their intensity and design…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
The intensity of the bulbs is the most difficult to deal with. When driving through a roadway with oncoming vehicles and meeting their headlights, from dusk until daylight, I experience a blindness. Once the headlights come towards me I find that it takes longer for my retinas to adjust and leave me with a brief period where what I look at ahead of me is not clear enough for a few moments. The intensity of these types of light are so strong that its difficult to not be impacted, even when diverting my focus to the lines along the side of the road as I pass the vehicles. Often one oncoming vehicle after another makes it harder becomes the intensity does not lessen for several minutes. I would have thought I had an eyesight deficiency that may be attributing except for the fact that it is general conversation that people around me state that it is difficult for them to see with oncoming and past these headlights as well. Therefore I can at least conclude that its something to do with the headlights. When this Ban Blinding Headlights petition began, I began reading all of the information being gathered on the subject which lead me to believe there is something not right and potentially dangerous about us using these bulbs and being exposed day after day to them. My question is what are they doing to our eyesight? In addition are these bulbs being used in the best way by serving as headlights? Thank you, sincerely for looking into this situation.

Opposes the RFI, alleging it is intended to generate litigation evidence, criticizes the secretary’s qual…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
This is a scam. The Secretary of Health and Human Services is a lawyer consultant looking to create specific evidence linking a “health issue” to cases. It’s a fishing expedition designed to give RFK power to win in court. It’s a mockery of what the Sec of HHS should be doing, as RFK has no Medical degree, no public health degree, and no experience in anything relevant for health, but is necessary to run the nation’s healthcare system, child support policy, and social services, just to name a few. RFK should be fired or resign immediately.

Cites a patent and alleges invasive airborne biometric surveillance, raising consent, cybersecurity and p…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Smart Dust Patent Anonymous Source This is not random. This is not coincidence. This is fear. They are monitoring every conversation about this patent with machine precision because what they patented is one of the most invasive, dystopian, and soul-crushing technologies ever created by a bank. The Patent That Should Make Humanity Rage: US11354666B1 Granted to Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. on June 7, 2022 Full patent: read every single page: https://patents.google.com/patent/US11354666B1/en Rameshchandra Bhaskar Ketharaju, Sarath Chava, Prasad N. Sivalanka, Madhu V. Vempati (filed 2016). This is a complete blueprint for swarms of airborne Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) “smart dust” motes. These microscopic sensors can be released into the air around you at an ATM, store terminal, or anywhere their system is active. They float like invisible gnats, self-organize into networks, and create an invisible cloud that devours your biology in real time: - Heart rate and pulse patterns - Body temperature fluctuations - Blood pressure signatures - Voice, breathing, and audio tremors - Motion, gait, and gestures - Optical images and facial recognition - Infrared thermal mapping - Electromagnetic fields around your body - Location and environmental context All of it harvested from the air you breathe and turned into a “user profile” to decide if you’re allowed to access your own money. No phone. No card. No password. Just your living heartbeat and breath serving as Wells Fargo’s biometric slave key. They patented the air around you. The space your body occupies. The oxygen filling your lungs. Let that horror sink in. Imagine standing at a teller window while an invisible swarm engulfs you without consent. These machines probe your heartbeat like digital vampires, map your thermal signature, listen to every subtle vibration in your voice, and photograph your face from every angle; all so a corporate algorithm can grant or deny your transaction. What if the swarm stays suspended longer than intended? What if it’s inhaled deep into your lungs and crosses into your bloodstream? What if hackers seize control? What if governments demand the data? We have almost zero independent long-term studies on the health consequences of deliberately releasing swarms of engineered microscopic particles into public air. The risks: respiratory destruction, chronic inflammation, neurological interference, bioaccumulation; are terrifying and unknown. This is not innovation. This is corporate ownership of the human body and the shared atmosphere. And the second my post started gaining traction, their monitoring systems lit up and they pounced in under three minutes. That speed is their confession. This patent does not exist in isolation. It is the missing link that connects directly to the 5G/6G tower videos I’ve been showing you, the cancer clusters, the DARPA military roots, the network maps naming the executives and money masters, and the elite bunkers they’re building while they roll this out on us. They do NOT want you connecting these dots. Because if the full picture goes viral, the entire matrix they’ve built could start to collapse. This is only part. The rabbit hole is far darker, and I am holding nothing back.

Requests a moratorium on 5G small-cell deployment and preservation of local siting authority. Raises heal…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Across the nation many residents are concerned about the small cell wireless antennas being deployed in our community. These powerful antennas, part of the next generation of wireless technology (5G), are being placed in close proximity to our homes, schools and other places where we engage in the activities of our daily lives, even though there is no science that assures their safety. This is an undeniable risk. The rapid rollout of the next generation in wireless communications known as “5G." In neighborhoods like ours across America, so-called “small cell” antennas need to be installed close to homes and apartments to facilitate this new technology. The deployment raises serious issues that should concern everyone in our community: safety, security, privacy, property values and health. The FCC’s human exposure guidelines for the radio frequency (RF) microwave radiation used for this technology are decades out of date and the agency has dismissed the results of decade-long research on RF microwave radiation and human health completed last year by the National Toxicology Program that showed “clear evidence of carcinogenicity.” Because the health and safety of our families is at stake, we demand a moratorium on further deployment of 5G until it can be proven safe. NOTE: This is a security and privacy issue. Wireless networks are relatively easy to hack compared to fiber-optic wired networks. Data from your phone and other wireless personal or home devices can be easily captured and marketed. In addition, small cell installations have the capacity to house cameras for facial recognition, as they do in China. What guarantees do we have that the technology will not be abused? This is a safety issue. Local zoning codes are meant to protect our safety, but the wireless industry is fighting those codes. Most existing utility poles (the preferred location for small cell antennas because it’s cheap) were not designed to withstand the hundreds of pounds of additional equipment, and severe weather events could bring down the poles, causing damage to our homes and property. Our local officials should have the right to decide where those new antennas and their equipment are placed. But perhaps most troubling is the news about our health. A recent (2018) peer-reviewed study by the National Toxicology Program of the National Institutes of Health – the most prestigious health research organization in the world – proved that exposure to radio frequency (RF) radiation, the kind emitted from all wireless devices and their infrastructure, causes cancer and DNA damage. Not maybe. Their language says there was “clear evidence of carcinogenicity.” We urge you to visit www.AmericansForResponsibleTech.org to learn more about these issues and what you can do to protect your home and family.

Invokes Robert Becker’s bioelectricity work to argue for non-thermal safety assessment. Describes claimed…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
**SUBMISSION TO THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES (HHS)** **Regarding:** Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure **Docket Reference:** Related to Federal Register Notice (Document 2026-19252) **Subject:** Incorporating Non-Thermal Biological Frameworks and the Scientific Legacy of Dr. Robert O. Becker into Modern Regulatory Safety Standards I. Executive Summary As HHS reviews scientific data regarding human exposure to EMFs, RF, and wireless radiation, it must address a fundamental flaw in existing safety paradigms: the reliance on thermal-only thresholds. To establish safety standards protecting public health from chronic wireless environments, HHS should integrate the bioelectromagnetics principles established by Dr. Robert O. Becker (former Chief of Orthopedic Surgery and VA Medical Investigator). Dr. Becker’s pioneering research and historical testimonies—such as his 1977 *60 Minutes* evaluation of the Navy's ELF "Project Seafarer" grid—prove that living organisms are highly sensitive bioelectric systems vulnerable to non-thermal radiation. II. The Flaw of the Thermal-Only Paradigm Current federal exposure limits assume electromagnetic radiation only harms human health if it causes thermal burning or acute heating. Dr. Becker’s work directly refutes this, demonstrating that uncontrolled, non-thermal electrical and magnetic fields interact directly with living tissue at a cellular level. Living cells maintain delicate electrical potentials governing growth, healing, and communication. Ambient, non-thermal radiation acts as an external disruptor to these networks. Evaluating safety based solely on tissue temperature ignores the primary biological mechanisms through which EMFs cause harm. III. The Bioelectric "Double-Edged Sword" Dr. Becker’s warnings were grounded in clinical success using bioelectricity for tissue regeneration. He pioneered using precise, low-voltage currents to stimulate cellular repair and heal complex bone fractures that would not mend on their own. This breakthrough established a "double-edged sword": 1. **The Beneficial Axis:** Controlled, specific electromagnetic frequencies can positively interface with living tissue to accelerate healing and guide growth. 2. **The Hazardous Axis:** Because biological systems are profoundly sensitive to minute electrical signals, exposure to uncontrolled, ambient electromagnetic fields (from consumer electronics, power lines, and wireless infrastructure) can distort internal signals, causing systemic biological dysfunction. IV. Documented Non-Thermal Pathophysiology HHS must re-examine biological impacts through non-thermal data. In his evaluations, Dr. Becker identified clear physiological disruptions that current wireless standards fail to mitigate, including: * **Serum Triglyceride and Cardiovascular Stress:** Human subjects exposed to low-frequency magnetic fields in controlled trials (Pensacola, FL; Clam Lake, WI) experienced considerable, rapid elevation in serum triglycerides within 24 hours—a verified medical indicator of biological stress and elevated risk for cardiovascular events and stroke. * **Stunted Growth and Stress:** Serving on the first ad hoc committee evaluating military ELF data, Dr. Becker highlighted data proving that exposed animals grew at a slower rate and exhibited systemic markers of chronic physiological stress. V. Mitigating Institutional Bias and Funding Suppression A critical component of this RFI must include an audit of how safety data is evaluated. Dr. Becker documented a systemic pattern where independent scientific projects were terminated and stripped of funding the moment they documented positive biological effects from low-frequency radiation. Furthermore, he cautioned against "pre-biased" oversight panels consisting of individuals who have already publicly committed to the safety of infrastructure, making them structurally incapable of objectively evaluating ambient hazards. HHS must rely strictly on independent science insulated from industry influence. VI. Conclusion and Regulatory Recommendations The proliferation of modern wireless networks has subjected the public to unprecedented, chronic ambient radiation. Dr. Becker’s historic conclusion—that he would not want his family to reside within an active ambient antenna system—remains an urgent warning. We request that HHS: 1. **Move Beyond Thermal Limits:** Establish safety thresholds based on cellular and cardiovascular biomarkers. 2. **Account for Cumulative Exposure:** Revise guidelines to reflect chronic, 24-hour exposure to dense wireless environments. 3. **Fund Independent Bioelectromagnetics Research:** Revitalize federal funding for independent studies exploring long-term impacts on endogenous bioelectric networks. Respectfully submitted, Jason Villeggiante

A commenter identifying as a physician reports personal and patient EMF sensitivity, headaches, brain fog…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am a Board Certified physician in practice for over 43 years. I have personally experienced and have many patients that have experienced detrimental effects with EMF radiation exposure. Headaches, brain fog, agitation, heart palpitations and insomnia are the most common complaints. It is extremely difficult to minimize and impossible to fully shield from the ever increasing amounts and intensities of wireless radiation that we are being exposed to without informed consent. I was threatened with being jailed many years ago by APS when I refused to let them install 4 "smart" meters 5 feet away from where I conduct my medical practice. Just recently, I had to take my newish car to several places at great cost to disable the multiple electronic signals being broadcast within inches of my head. It is becoming an increasingly difficult world to navigate for those of us aware of our EMF sensitivity. Sadly, so many many more are not aware of these signals being a causative or contributing factor to their medical issues. Independent studies must be done and citizens must be informed and given options on saying no to wireless radiation including cell towers, "smart" devices, wifi etc.

Reports worsening tinnitus and illness attributed to EMF exposure, identifies EMF sickness and requests a…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
For the past 6 years I have progressively got sicker living in the Black hills of South Dakota. The EMF generated rainstorms that are commonly created and dispersed along with stratospheric aerosol injection campaigns in our sky have made tinnitus for myself nearly unbearable. I think EMF sickness is much more prevalent than the local doctors and monument health folks in Rapid City want to disclose or talk about... I wouldn't be surprised if many of the doctors who are young now and in this area have had to sign a non-disclosure agreement regarding EMF exposure. There are times where I honestly feel like my body is being microwaved, my internal organs feel heated up, and all due to exposure to EMFs. I'm otherwise a healthy man who works out exercises and eats right. I do not have a history of mental illness or other maladies... But unless electronic devices are put on airplane mode or completely turned off, I feel at times so sick I can barely move. I've talked to my dentist about this and she agrees with me.. she wears an EMF hat at night as so do I and she has EMF blankets for her children that she covers them with at night... The smart meters mounted on the sides of the houses are awful and emit EMF radiation as well... Please launch a full epidemiology study in the Black hills of South Dakota on EMF poisoning... I think you will find a startling amount of people suffer from EMF sickness here.

Addresses the FCC in a submission to the HHS record, requesting realistic cumulative and lifetime exposur…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Re: ET Docket No. 13-84 — RF Exposure Issues Subject to Remand in Environmental Health Trust v. FCC To the Federal Communications Commission: I submit this comment as a member of the public concerned that the FCC’s current radiofrequency (RF) exposure standards and testing procedures may not fully reflect today’s communications environment. Wireless technology provides enormous benefits. My concern is not opposition to Wi-Fi, cellular networks, satellites, wearables, 5G, 6G, or emerging systems. My concern is that safety testing and regulatory review should evolve as rapidly as the technology itself. The Commission should not presume that RF exposure below existing limits is harmful where causation has not been established. But scientific uncertainty should not automatically be treated as proof of safety. REAL-WORLD AND CUMULATIVE EXPOSURE People may now be exposed simultaneously to phones, Wi-Fi routers, Bluetooth devices, wearables, computers, connected vehicles, smart-home devices, cellular infrastructure, satellites, and other RF sources. The FCC should examine whether its framework adequately evaluates aggregate and cumulative exposure rather than considering devices mainly in isolation. Testing should reflect foreseeable use, including devices against the body, near the head, worn for long periods, and operating multiple radios simultaneously. Where relevant, it should also consider multiple frequencies, modulation, pulsed transmissions, beamforming, and changing duty cycles. LONG-TERM EXPOSURE AND CHILDREN Modern exposure can occur throughout the day and over decades. The FCC should distinguish short-term exposure from chronic, cumulative, and lifetime exposure. Children deserve specific analysis because they may begin using wireless devices early and experience exposure over much longer portions of their lives. The Commission should clearly explain the scientific basis for concluding that its limits and testing procedures adequately protect children. NON-CANCER EFFECTS The Commission should rigorously evaluate credible evidence concerning possible non-cancer effects, including neurological, cognitive, reproductive, oxidative, and other biological endpoints. Inconsistent findings or methodological limitations should lead to careful analysis, not blanket acceptance or dismissal. The FCC should identify which findings have been replicated, whether credible dose-response relationships exist, how exposure was measured, whether appropriate controls were used, whether confounding factors were addressed, and whether observed biological changes represent actual adverse health outcomes at exposures relevant to FCC limits. ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS Environmental impacts also deserve meaningful investigation. Research should distinguish possible RF effects from tower lighting, collisions, habitat disruption, construction, and other confounding factors. A lack of high-quality independent field studies should be identified as a research gap, not automatically treated as evidence of no effect. PRIVACY, SECURITY, AND MALICIOUS USE As RF-dependent technology becomes ubiquitous, the FCC should also recognize related privacy and cybersecurity risks, either here where relevant to technological developments or through a separate proceeding. RF energy itself does not collect personal information. However, wireless systems can create mechanisms through which devices may be identified, tracked, impersonated, disrupted, or subjected to unauthorized interception. Documented concerns include rogue cellular base stations, rogue Wi-Fi access points, wireless identifiers, Bluetooth vulnerabilities, spoofing, jamming, interference, and techniques capable of distinguishing devices through characteristics of their RF transmissions. As wireless systems expand, regulators should consider unauthorized tracking, location-related metadata, RF fingerprinting, malicious interference, and transparency about what systems transmit, collect, infer, retain, or disclose. REQUESTED ACTION I respectfully ask the FCC to modernize RF compliance testing; evaluate aggregate, long-term, and lifetime exposure; specifically address children; transparently evaluate non-cancer effects; identify replicated and unreplicated findings; support independent environmental and human-exposure research; improve public access to testing methods and assumptions; and establish recurring review of RF standards as technology evolves. The United States can lead in communications technology while also leading in independent research, transparent safety standards, privacy protection, and realistic exposure assessment. Scientific uncertainty should lead to better measurement, better research, and better safeguards—not complacency. Respectfully submitted,
