LIVE: 5G campaigner on trial in Gateshead

The 57-year-old, who claims lampposts are causing cancer, was standing trial at Gateshead Magistrates' Court today

The judge presiding over the hearing was Deputy District Judge Zoe Passfield, who warned Steele that the trial wasn't a platform to rant about 5G and told him: "The vast majority of your defence bundle is in fact inadmissible evidence."

Someone I know (who was actually a very famous rock climber in his day) posted some 5g nonsense video.

So I replied with this image. Facebook has automatically blocked it!

The problem with satire these days is that it's not all that different from the wacky shit that people actually profess to believe. Sometimes real batshittery is even weirder than the joke stuff, because the real stuff has no requirement to be at all believable by sensible people.

I seriously think it's time to retire such satire. It's redundant and actually bears the risk of encouraging the real nonsense. I partly blame the totally unfunny wannabe satirists for the popularity of Flat Earth bullshit.

Quite an excellent total takedown:

The claims and conspiracy theories surrounding the launch of 5G networks have been shocking. In the most extreme cases, people linking the technology with the coronavirus pandemic have torched mobile phone masts and assaulted engineers. In an attempt to get to the bottom of it, VICE speaks to Dr David Robert Grimes, a cancer researcher and physicist at the University of Oxford, to find out if there are any grounds for these claims and to hear his explanation of the symptoms some people are attributing to the rollout of 5G. We also meet people protesting against the implementation of the new generation of cellular networks to hear the ways that they claim it is negatively impacting their lives.

"The most powerful photon, or particle of light, that could be a 5G particle would still be about 17,000 times less energetic than the weakest possible visible light.

So if you're really really concerned about 5G you should be terrified of lightbulbs"

Oh, Glastonb ry

Most of the evidence the committee heard was from witnesses who had stated their support for a moratorium on the rollout of 5G.

They included retired American professor Martin Pall, who in 2019 claimed that wireless networks would make all human beings sterile if they were not switched off within two years.

Another witness was Dr Andrew Tresidder, a former GP whose website offers flower remedies and emotional healing. His presentation focused on people claiming to suffer from "electromagnetic stress", which he said was often not taken seriously by mainstream doctors.

Committee member Roy Procter, a spiritual healer who claims dowsing can heal "sick houses", also gave a presentation. In the report, he speculates about a link between the coronavirus and 5G, and recommends that the council eliminate all wi-fi connections.

I have no time for the 5G conspiracy theorists, but the same is true of the photons used by a microwave oven.

600 watts vs milliwatts and still only a warming effect.

Right, it's just that the size of the photon energy is not much of an argument.

 

[gentlegreen]

Something I recently saw pointed out is that the existing spectrum from 800mhz to 2.4 GHz will continue to be the "bread and butter" of communication since the super high frequencies have such little penetrative ability.

Light frequencies at least have the potential to do genetic damage. Even a halogen light bulb emits UV and could potentially do damage at close quarters - I seem to recall warnings on lamps...

If 4G stickers were placed on all the cabinets would that stop the nutters setting fire to them? After all they probably can't tell the difference between a TV aerial and a satellite dish.

Great news! We're saved! Now there's a handy wearable holographic nano-layer catalyser to spare us from the onslaught of 5G killer death rays and restores the coherence of the geometry of the atoms, which allows a perfect induction for life forces, by (re-) creating a cardiac coherence, via plasmic support and interactivity.
Just £283.

5Ghz is well used now though, especially since 802.11ac came out (it only uses 5Ghz). There are also a lot of 60 and 80 Ghz links out there. Point to point only but it's being used a lot.

Almost certainly not -- far too many fruitcakes and crystal-botherers!

The Flat Earth stuff seems to be dying out somewhat. There only seems to be so much room for high-profile batshittery.

I think I posted it upthread, but there's another woo product massively hitting my Youtube feed at the moment.
A multimillion dollar crowdfund ripoff - ironically apparently repurposing a mobile phone printed antenna booster thing.

Pretty sure it is actually based on "quantum capacitors" - I kid you not.

EDIT - no, they're "nano-capacitors"

It's kind of depressing that so many people are in such chronic pain that they forego all rationality in search of something that will help.
I have friends in their 20's with long-term pain who are seemingly perfectly healthy in all other ways.

Don't recall my cohort dealing with such things at such a tender age, and we were largely pretty sedentary too.

I'm trying to find how to challenge Youtube about this bollocks - tempted to email a couple of youtubers who debunk this sort of crap - but there's fuck all there - it's a bit of Plastic with aluminium printed circuit - I don't think this particular bollocks even works with a mobile phone app like the previous two that put coils around your head.

In spite of many years going to the festival I'd never actually been round the town until last year.
