Opposition specific to 5G should not be aimed at personal safety and health only , but focused on its real-time potential to destroy liberty/personal autonomy exponentially beyond 4G.

Mom was right: too much TV rots your brain
Vegging out in front of the television really can make you a vegetable. A recent study from University College London confirms previous suspicions that excessive time in front of the television is linked to cognitive decline and even dementia in older adults. The study scrutinized data from a long-term English study of more than 3,600...
Auto sales show shift away from gas mobiles to electric cars
An analysis of sales of light-duty vehicles — in other words, cars — in 2018 in the world’s three biggest vehicle markets show that gas buggies are surrendering ground to electric cars. China is not only the world’s fastest growing vehicle market but also the world’s largest producer of EVs. In 2018, sales of fossil-fuel...
Studies: Millennials are buying cars and driving after all
It’s been widely thought that Millennials didn’t want to own cars and, instead, preferred riding bikes and taking public transport because they were frugal and environmentally aware. But a new study offers data showing that Millennials now are buying and driving cars in droves. It was the recession, not a lifestyle choice, that kept them...
Game on
It’s piloting our planes, diagnosing our health issues, and analyzing our finances. It’s re-shaping our job markets and, whether we realize it or not, it’s pushing us to re-consider much more deeply, the unique values of the human mind. It’s AI. Artificial Intelligence. Or as many scientists prefer to call it Computer Intelligence, because there’s...

Measuring the drugs in our water supply
It’s long been known that pharmaceutical drugs are showing up in our water supplies. Leftover pills dumped in the garbage or unmetabolized drugs excreted from our bodies have few other places to go. But few studies of the concentration of those drugs in our water have been as exacting as the one just completed by...
How to boost an aging brain
In two separate experiments, scientists have brought new youth to aging brains. Researchers at the German Cancer Research Center and the Luxembourg Centre for Systems Biomedicine found a way to revive dormant brain stem cells in old mice. Stem cells are building blocks. Given the right chemical signals, they can grow into cells that make...
Don’t recycle plastic, upcycle it instead
The more than 400 trillion plastic water and soda bottles that the world’s consumers buy each year are made of a plastic called polyethylene terephthalate, or PET. Recycling isn’t a real solution to the rising tide of plastic waste: PET can only be recycled two to six times before its fibers become too short to...
New solar panel makes hydrogen and electricity
Along with solar energy, hydrogen is seen by many – including many research scientists – as a fuel of the future: it can power vehicles and heat homes without creating noxious emissions. Until now, the challenge has been to derive hydrogen in a cheap and easy way. But scientists at KU Leuven, a Dutch research...
