How the Telecom Companies Are Losing the Battle to Impose Densified 4G/5G Wireless Radiation Against the Will of the People

By Claire Edwards, Oct 4, 2019 | Original Global Research article here.

The telecommunications companies and the mainstream media would have you believe that the race to roll out Densified 43G + 5G is unstoppable. That you are nothing and no one in the face of a lethal multi-trillion-dollar agenda imposed by some of the most powerful entities on the planet.

They thought that if they called their new, alleged “communications technology”, adapted from the military Active Denial Technology, “5G” or fifth generation, the public would just assume that it was more of the same as 4G, 3G or 2G. And if they could characterize the roll-out as a race, the public would not have enough time to find out what a killer technology 5G actually has been and will continue to be. How wrong they were! Not only has the public found out, but now they know how lethal previous generations of wireless technology – to be used concurrently with 5G – have been and continue to be, as well.

See the evidence. below. from a number of different countries that show that the pushback against densified 4G + 5G Wireless Telecommunications Facilities (WTFs) in neighborhoods is huge and growing. The Telecom firms are losing the propaganda war, despite their control of the mainstream media

  • Not a whisper of the dangers of Densified 4G + 5G from mainsteam news outlets and web sites

  • Social media and Youtube, have been desperately deleting millions of accounts to silence the naysayers.

As this article went to press, support arrived from an unlikely source. In an impassioned speech before the United Nations General Assembly on 24 September 2019, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson stated that digital authoritarianism is not the stuff of dystopian fantasy but of an emerging reality. He described the Internet of Things, “smart” cities and AI as a giant, dark thundercloud lowering ever more oppressively over the human race, a gathering force reshaping the future of humanity over which the human race has no control and from which, in future, there may be nowhere to hide.

He asked if algorithms could be trusted with our lives and hopes and whether machines should be allowed to doom us to a cold and heartless future in an Orwellian world designed for censorship, repression and control. He recalled the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and endorsed its ideals of upholding freedom of opinion and expression, the privacy of home and correspondence, and the right to seek and impart information and ideas.

He exhorted the academic committees, company boards and industry standards groups who are writing the rulebooks of the future, making ethical judgments, and choosing what will or will not be rendered possible to find the right balance . . .

  • between freedom and control,
  • between innovation and regulation,
  • between private enterprise and government oversight.

He insisted that the ethical judgments inherent in the design of new technology must be made transparent to all and that joint efforts must be made to agree a common set of global principles to shape the norms and standards that will guide the development of emerging technology.

What follows is a citizen journalist’s list of the actions taken to halt Densifed 4G + 5G installations. The table, below, also lists reports and complaints that have discredited this Machiavellian attempt to foist a disastrous technology on the world in 2019. It is not an exhaustive list and I extend my apologies to all those whose efforts I may have overlooked here. Much gratitude to all who have contributed to making this pushback so successful.

We cannot afford to be complacent and, in particular, we must work to stop the use of the Earth orbits and the stratosphere to beam 4G and 5G down to Earth, for this puts the ionosphere and the entire planet at risk. We must also work to ensure that the use of street lights with blue light for this anti-life agenda is rapidly reversed.

The effort to stop Densified 4G + 5G is still gathering momentum and we must continue to work together and tirelessly to protect all life on Earth and the planet itself until this demented plan is relegated to the history books as the most Mephistophelian scheme in the history of humankind.

16 ICNIRP 3 March Eric Van Rongen, Chair of ICNIRP [self-proclaimed international commission on non-ionizing radiation protection, but actually just a German NGO], the organisation whose non-transparent pronouncements on the international limits at which phones can emit radiofrequency are strangely adopted by UN bodies, calls 5G “a public health experiment”, stating that “It will be necessary to gain more information about the exposure and any health problems that might come from an effect of that exposure”.
