Re: Electromagnetic radiation and its effect on the brain
Hello everyone,
Very interesting topic. The most important things have already been said here. About GPS and the like.
Hello everyone,

Yes, it depends also on your OS. Linux, for example, or at least the network manager, activates WiFi on each system start and when you awake your system from standby! Either you deactivate WiFi each time manually or you uninstall the driver, whatsoever. The ultimate solution is to remove the card completely, if you know how.Other than cell phone usage and WiFi in your house, one thing to really watch out for is if you have a laptop. Quite often, when you reboot the laptop, the WiFi (and/or Bluetooth) will automatically turn itself on again. Best to turn off the WiFi and Bluetooth, or else you are just sitting there irradiating yourself for no reason. Bad juju!
The router will be less active rather than broadcasting data packets to your computer, and vice versa. But nevertheless it emits radiation all the time if its WiFi module is switched on. And yes, you have to turn off all kinds of things that are able to emit microwaves on your laptop in order to become less radiated. If all these wireless things are off, it is actually tolerable, assumed you keep a certain distance to electric devices.Totally forgot about laptop! Since it's a share house I can't convince everyone to give up the WiFi. So, if I hard line my laptop, will I be getting less WiFi because the laptop transmits as well?
Yes, I did not understand it as well while I was translating this article. Literally yes, but somehow the moderator and Barry Trower talked at cross purposes. And then they went ahead with another subtopic.I also didn't understand the part about the radio. I listen to my car radio usually.
Of course, compared with WiFi, DECT and cellphone technology.But aren't radio waves less harmful than microwaves?
Your car's bodywork is made of sheet steel or/and aluminum. The result is that the signal coming from the cellphone tower(s) is weakened. Hence your cellphone enhances its own signal in order to sustain the connection and thus radiates stronger as usually. And the very microwaves are reflected by the metal of your car. The car is a Faraday cage.How does a radio wave turn into a microwave when in a car?
I think, he just pointed out the fact I have described above without listening to the questions from the moderator as an automatic and fully mechanical response within a dialogue. That's the way politicians speak, for example. They do not listen, they say just things they have prepared as "templates" in their minds. So they never will say something that should not be said. Coming back to the car radio. It should not be so bad. The antenna is outside of the car and radio is just received. The largest part of it is not pulsed, another small part is pulsed.Yeah, that bit is a little confusing. I think he may have misunderstood the question. We were also wondering about the car radio. Maybe someone who is knowledgeable about these things can shed some light.JCW:
Will car radios have the same effect on you, turning a car into a microwave, if I turn on my car radio? Is that a problem?
BT:
You should never , ever have microwave radiation inside a car, not ever. Never ever.
It remains only its natural electric field which all electric devices have. But that is not so bad and no reason to worry, only in cases where this field is strong enough to have an impact upon you (e.g. sockets, power cables inside walls and radio alarm clocks).I've always carried my cell phone in my pocket. But for some months now I have it turned off. But if it's true that only when transmitting or receiving does it produce radiation then it shouldn't be a problem, osit. I really only use it as a clock, and infrequent calls if I need to contact home or someone at work.
Yes, a cellphone cannot send information to satellite in a distance of 20,000 km. The cellphone can just receive this very weak signal coming from these satellites in the orbit. But if you have a GPS within a cellphone (e.g. A-GPS), that system is more a hybrid, it sends at least to three usual cellphone towers near to you. This way your position can be determined much faster and there are less connection interruptions or abortions. Cellphones radiate invariably.Wouldn't a GPS have to send a signal back to give its location, in order to map? Perhaps I don't understand how GPS works, though - I thought it sent a signal to the satellite to say 'here I am' the satellite returned a signal to say 'yep, there you are in reference to the rest of the globe'? How else could phones be tracked by GPS signal if they didn't transmit? I could obviously use some 'technical assistance' on this one.
Nope standard GPS device is only a reciever , GPS as a system works in a broadcast mode , like standard radio. It only recieves information about longtitude and latitude , so no transmitters in it
Satellite radio and GPS devices will never transmit anything back as far as I know - they just receive signals and use them to let you listen to music or to triangulate your position and plot it on a map.
Young children and to adults... and animals and maybe some plants. Yes, it is curious and certainly not an accident.BT:
The electromagnetic spectrum is a band that goes from gamma rays and x-rays at one end, the very high energy waves, and it comes down through visible light, which is also some radiation, and then it goes through infrared microwaves, tv and radio. Now the only ones which really affect us in the communications industry are the microwaves, and microwaves have a special ability to interfere with water, which is how microwave ovens work, and we are made of water.
All of our chemical and electrical signals involve water in the body, somehow, electrical communications in the body. So, the industry has picked the worst possible part of the electromagnetic spectrum to give to young children and to adults.
Isn't it curious that the favorite frequency of all these wireless technologies is the same as that of a microwave oven?
Yes, memory loss could be a consequence of electromagnetic radiation. It is said that experiments had shown that rats became increased memory capabilities after radiation, but it could be likewise disinformation. For human beings it is the opposite at least.This was not at home. This was when I was away. Ok, so I have a longstanding, shortterm memory issue that pops up from time to time. Should I be worried? What are the implications of this?
You are writing and discussing here and you become aware of all the risks and impacts and how to protect yourself and I think, one becomes more carefully if he is not ignorant towards the available information. Knowledge reveals often ways to do or achieve something that is needed.What do they mean by knowledge protects in this instance? What can I do to protect myself
I think, you have to speak with them. It is your health and your parents cannot restore it after damage. Maybe you won't see your parents in a couple of years, you will have your own family (I do not know your age), but all the damage possibly remains. So if you know what is wrong and what actually to do why not to act right now?I cannot remove the wireless router from my room as well that will be an all-mighty battle ground with the parents... There is no other place in the house for it. My room is used as a study when I am not in, which is the case for nearly half the year.
DECT is comparable with WiFi and thus absolutely dangerous. It is wise to use the classic wired phones.But we have two wireless phones in the house. Don't know if wired phones are even available anymore.
And the ECOLOG study and the BioInitiative report.Is the wifi used by the entire family? You could print out the interview mentioned at the beginning of this thread and show your family. If the info is coming from a retired British military scientist, they're more likely to take it seriously than if it were from a conspiracy theorist blogger, for example.
That's true. The signal of a router is actually too strong and sometimes it can reach distances about 60 meters (being positioned inside a house). And if there are more routers than people and each flat has at least one router, you have a very very bad environment you should leave if possible (or shield, if you know how and have 10cm walls made of lead ;)).No use fretting over what you can't control... I don't know where you live, but in lots of big cities there is nowhere you can go where you aren't in a wifi zone.
One thing that is a result of radiation is stress and stress leads to all sorts of illnesses. That means detox or die. I have not tested silk yet, I should do, but it is seemingly to known to some manufacturers of anti-electromagnetic products and shielding products. Silk in conjunction with silver fibers is sometimes used to reduce radiation. It is expensive and if you are able to build your own protection, you should do and try this.Patience makes a good point here, there is no sense worrying about something you can't control. He's right, the C's have suggested (in some recent session, I believe) that detox is one of the best ways to avoid some of the biggest damages from EMF radiation. On top of that, they've also mentioned that wearing silk can be of help in some cases too. If you do a forum search on "silk" you should turn up some info on that.
