The 5g conspiracy craziness are but the latest example showing that a civilization's technological progress is hard-limited at any given time by the quality of education a median member of the society has received.
@rysiek My concern is with legitimate debate ceding the spotlight to outrageous
conspiracies.

With regards to health specifically there is this public letter from hundreds of real doctors and other scientists:
https://www.5gappeal.eu/signatories-to-scientists-5g-appeal/
Now, if the authors of that appeal are linking a (legitimate) scientific article about negative impact of microwave radar on human health in the context of 5G, this clearly demonstrates that they have no idea what they're talking about.
A typical radar has power measured in thousands of Watts. A microwave ovens are 800-900 Watts. A typical 5G cell is 250 milliWatts. A typical WiFi is 20 milliWatts.

If you say that we need to live in a cave 100m underground to avoid it, why are #radiation levels set 70 times lower in some countries than others?
How does this fit in with schools in Europe removing #WiFi to avoid excessive #EMF?
Agree with the #privacy concerns.
There's #gaslighting and charming #advertising aimed at building consent for #5G.
#LocalCouncils are disempowered in #Australia yet where's the proof of #publicSafety?

> schools in Europe removing WiFi
I have not heard about it but it's definitely possible if there's enough illiterate parents pressuring the school management based on FUD they found on Facebook. There's no scientific evidence that WiFi has any harmful effect on humans and there won't be simply because the power is too small and distance is too big to be able to pass any energy to human body.
