Silent Killers

5G is just around the corner, WI-FI is almost everywhere and in most cases it's free, smart homes are the new trend in housing and everything seems much more accessible, cheaper and simple to use nowadays, especially in tech. But I am somehow "swimming against the current" nowadays. I've became a contrarian that somehow refuses to digest everything thrown at.

In an older post, that I will not link in here because I'm too lazy to do that, I shared a youtube video about how much more harmful 4G connection is in comparison with 3G and talked a bit cellular radiations and what scientists are warning us about the future 5G that lots of devices will have available pretty soon. I haven't changed my view since then after seeing the measured radiations in that video and I am cautious about using my smartphone with 4G.

Moreover I started searching on youtube how is WI-FI affecting us and as I assumed it's not "a breath of fresh air" at all. One guy equipped with an Acoustimeter measured in a video on youtube the WI-FI radiations emitted by his AT&T router in multiple scenarios and also warned WI-FI users of the potential harmful effects of them such as constant fatigue, dizziness, disturbed sleeping and more. Video that got me thinking and acting.

I for example have had my wireless router sitting on my desk ever since... and I kind of heard something about this stuff in the past also but ignored everything and kept it in the same place, active day and night. Because I was lazy and loved the comfort it offered. Now things have changed. I have unplugged my router, connected the net cable directly to my laptop, which stays on my desk anyway because the battery is dead, and rely on my carrier for internet on my smartphone. Simple, healthy and no costs involved having the same user experience as with my router ON.

I can't say that I feel physically that something changed in my body and that I don't feel the radiations anymore because I haven't felt them before either, but I have the peace of mind that I am doing the most that I can to live healthier and not give up on tech either. I think my sleep is a bit better since I am not keeping the WI-Fi router anymore but I am not 100% this is the cause. I encourage you to spend seven minutes of your life and watch the video link above and even considering a "no WI-FI" life like myself.

Thanks for attention and have a great day!
