My father told a (potentially apocryphal) story which (may or may not have) happened the 50s (?) regarding the dangers of radio signals.
An engineer was asked to participate in a study of the dangers of radio signals -- so he demonstrated the dangers to the committee (I don't recall the details, killing a mouse maybe).
Then the chairman responded (something along the lines of): "That's all well and good, but we want to assure people that it is safe."

From what I understand from the one show I watched on the "dangers of 5G" (key weird music), the issue has to do with the beam steering and higher relative power levels. I mean, you *do* have an RF device next to your brain. Is it sufficient power levels? Track the studies and especially who is paying for them - both pro and con.

That is why my tin foil hat business is so profitable. Supplemented by my credit card RFID proof wallets.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

If you want to supplement that income get yourself a rigged geiger counter like do-dad,
when the tin-foilers gather point it at some money and set it off:
- convinced their cash is radioactive they'll throw it away ... and well you collect it (into your lead lined bag of course - no need to take risks).
be kind though: demo the big notes as "more radioactive" [so the government can track and count them], ya should let them have the 1's and change so they can still buy food (and hats).

No, no - you need to rethink your marketing model. Just like inkjet printers, you want to fleece the client repeatedly for maximum profit. Dead people don't give repeat business - so you have to spend more to acquire new ones each time (and leave a trail of bodies which gets the authorities interested in the scam you are pulling).

No need to spend money on that stuff. I just advertise on QA.

I am probably part of the tin-foil hat brigade as after watching one talk I decided to always take my phone of out my pocket when I am driving, or in a moving vehicle, due to the boost in signal as the car crosses over cell boundaries.

I'm sure that 5G will lead to a great many deaths, though probably not from people getting their brains fried by signals.
A quick glance around any street will reveal hundreds of zombies glued to their phones when they ought to be looking at the road that they are driving down or the one that they are crossing.
Now, imagine that these people are actually looking at something immersive rather than simply worrying about whether they've got any likes on Twitface and a picture of intense carnage emerges.
So, where do I stand on 5G?
CON: Millions will die
PRO: The phombie apocalypse might have found a cure.

My name is Chicken Little, and the sky is falling on my head!
Typically we are all exposed to between 3 and 6 mSv/a, unless you are a frequent flyer in which case you are probably dead by now.![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)  The US is at the top of the range, and most of the rest of the world at the bottom end. All we need to do is figure out if radiation damage is higher in the US than in the rest of the world - which I doubt - and then figure out how much extra mSv/a 5G will give us, and if it will put the rest of the world above US levels.
I don't like to mention the four thousand trillion neutrinos passing through our bodies each day, so I won't.

Classic Movie Quote: Ra-di-a-tion. Yes, indeed. You hear the most outrageous lies about it. Half-baked goggle-box do-gooders telling everybody it's bad for you. Pernicious nonsense! Everybody could stand a hundred chest X-rays a year! They oughta have 'em, too.
Can anyone name the movie without cheating?

Don't forget about the evils of dihydrogen monoxide. In sufficient quantities, it can kill you in less than 5 minutes...

Indeed, it also is a major component in acid rain and has been found to be involved in many major climate related disasters such as floods and hurricanes.
Research has shown it can cause metal to rust!
