What I dislike is the use of technology before it’s tested. We’re doing it already with mobile phones, and there will be no restrictions on that until a court decides that someone’s tumor was caused by their phone, which is ass backwards IMO.
These tumors take 10-15 years to develop, and 10-15 years of tests were simply not done.
Even so, we all (almost all) still use them, and what exactly is the threat, if there is one?
Is it the 4G microwaves powering the phones, or is it the way wireless devices paired to them work, or is it the device itself radiating the damaging waves?
Is wi-fi more dangerous than a SIM card or a hard-wire connection?
I’ve read lots, but with very little conclusions as to how the way one uses a mobile phone can be made safer.
One woman had a tumor in her breast (allegedly) because she kept her phone in her bra. A guy had a tumor in his salaiva glands (allegedly) because of holding his mobile phone to his ear. Both were described as “heavy” users.
But what about more casual users, like me, and are we in danger for carrying our phones in pockets or a belt holder?
Would we be safer carrying our phones in a bag away from our bodies?
Should we avoid Bluetooth devices? Are they safer or less safe than the phone device or the waves surrounding us all, 24/7?
Nobody addresses these questions with clarity, and let’s face it, we’re all well into 15 years of usage by now, even so there don’t seem to be any answers yet.
Will next year, or the year after, be the year that everyone breaks out with a tumor?
And all this is about the existing situation, let alone 5G, which seems to be on its steam-roller way across the globe.
As said, I love and embrace this technology, I have Bluetooth headphones and ear pieces, and I’m pleased (up to now) to be getting my 9 year old daughter devices too.
Further development of it will be potentially incredible.
But, the BUT is huge, if we all drop down dead (or as good as) as a consequence.
