Arthur C. Clarke

Perhaps only fifty years from now, say the year 2000... it will be possible to conduct business

from Haiti or Bali... just as well as from London.

00:00:31

Voice-over

Arthur C. Clarke

A world in which we can be in instant contact with each other, wherever we may be, where we can contact friends anywhere on Earth, even if we don't know their actual physical location. When that time comes, the whole world will have shrunk to a point.

Voice-over

Arthur C. Clarke

In fact, men will no longer commute,

they will communicate.

D8 conference journalists

You want to take off the hoodie?

We're not going to yell at him.

Of course not. That's a warm hoodie.

00:01:16

Mark Zuckerberg

It's a thick hoodie. It's a company hoodie. We print our mission on the inside.

00:01:21

D8 conference journalists

Oh my God, the inside of the hoodie,

everybody. What is it? Making the...

00:01:27

Mark Zuckerberg

World more open and connected.

00:01:29

D8 conference journalists

Oh my God, it's like a secret cult.

Look at that: Making the world open and connected. Extreme graph platform. And this weird symbol in the middle that is probably...

00:01:35

Anouk

I'll give you a tour of the house.

This is what it looks like, since

the cell towers were put up in December. We've put foil up for protection.

00:01:50

Anouk

Here, you can see how it works

with the black paint. This helps us keep the radiation out.

00:01:58

Anouk

From this window, you can also see the cell tower. Look, there, in the distance. The sun is setting. There we go...

00:02:30

Asaka

January 31st. I took a train to Sendai. Some people switched off their phones

when I asked them to. On the way back, I changed seats, because it was crowded and I felt sick.

00:03:00

Per

I get very dizzy, and I would have problems speaking. It's a very painful sensation in the skin. An ache in your whole body. It's like being exposed to a torch. My vision gets very narrow, it gets darker. The last thing that happens is that I lose my hearing. Then it gets black.

00:03:49

Inger

Hello. Have you left all electronic equipment in the car?

00:03:54

Bregtje (director)

Yes, the phones, the laptops...

00:03:58

Inger

Laptops... or even if you have

an electronic watch?

00:04:05

Inger

I think you should leave

the camera about here. That far away from the house.

00:04:13

Bregtje

How is he today?

00:04:14

Inger

Tired, not very well.

00:04:49

Bregtje

Can you tell us exactly what the limitations are? What we can and cannot do.

00:04:57

Per

The main thing is that you don't get too close with the digital equipment that you have. The mechanical camera doesn't give off any electromagnetic field at all. So, that should be no problem whatsoever. So, you have to wind... It's like a clock, I guess. You wind it up.

00:05:20

Bregtje

What about a digital camera?

00:05:23

Per

Digital cameras... Because they're digital, they have electronic devices and switches at high speeds, so they give off radiofrequency emissions. I could have measured it if I had access to a lab. That's the kind of thing I used to do, back when I started at Ericsson.

00:05:51

Per

The first time I realized

that there was something strange

with electrical things, was when I was around three years old. I was walking in the forest, and after a while, I got dizzy. It felt as if the ground was shifting. I almost lost my balance. I looked up and I saw huge poles with wires. I realized I had to turn back. After that, I always kept a high pace passing underneath powerlines.

00:06:35

Per

I never told anybody, because as a child you just take it for granted:

These things aren't really healthy for me. The first time I was knocked unconscious was by an airplane radar. They sweep the surroundings. It could be that it's this... this sweep in frequency that I hear, because it's like...

00:07:27

Per

I was very interested in engines,

airplanes, submarines and whatever.

So, when I was a child, I just...

liked to disassemble things, and put them together and improve them. And figure out how to make them work better. I went to work at Ericsson

for a summer period. I had been soldering print circuit boards since I was ten or eleven. And they probably thought I was a funny guy. They told me: When you have finished school, come back. That's what I did.

00:08:18

Sony Erricsson guy

Hello?

This is the power station in Sweden.

00:08:22

Per

The whole atmosphere was optimistic.

We could do anything. There were so many intelligent people with interesting ideas. The mission of this company was to build the phone system of the future. They felt an urge to improve society, and they saw huge benefits for Sweden and the world. That was the whole idea: make life better for everybody.

00:08:54

Prime Minister, how are you?

00:08:58

Video cellphone guy

Let's have a look at the equipment

before we go on. The inhibit button gives you privacy, if you don't want your picture to go out. The self-view button permits you to check your appearance before you go on the air.

00:09:16

Hana

The library.

00:09:20

Video cellphone guy

Hello, Hanna.

00:09:22

Hana

Hello.

00:09:27

Per

I was working on the central intelligence, the computer system

to make all of this work. Mobile phones, smartphones... They're all small terminals with limited capabilities. In order to operate,

they need a kind of web. We could send signals over ordinary phone lines at a higher speed than is available anywhere today. We were so far ahead of our time... it was stupid of us not to realize that something like this could have a negative side, as well. We lost track of the future.

00:10:23

Per

The first symptoms I had were around 1986. It was quite common for me to work 60 or 70 hours per week. We were getting more and more computers, building more advanced devices, and they gave off emissions that were too high. I started getting skin symptoms. Like someone would be picking at your face with a needle. You would get a rash all over your body and on your face. Probably one of my engineers heard me swearing in front of the monitor. Just shouting: What the hell is this? He looked at me and said:

‘Are you feeling it, too?’

Yep. 55 or 57 people also

had these problems.

00:11:30

Striptease Presenter

Let's talk about a problem

that doesn't exist. Or to be more precise: there are people who say it doesn't exist. And then there are the people who suffer from it. Thousands of people suffer from electrosensitivity, and it's increasing by the day.

00:11:55

Per

Ericsson had started some kind of rescue mission: How do we solve this? So, Ericsson electro-sanitized my home. It was necessary.

We were that important to the company. The car was a very old Mercedes diesel. So, I was able to sit far away from the engine compartment, and they would drive me to the office. Sooner than I had anticipated, I was back working full time again.

00:12:31

Striptease presenter

At work, Per has his own entrance

near his office. He suffers from a disease that does not exist officially: electro hypersensitivity (EHS). That means that he can't bear to be near electrical wires...computers, telephones, refrigerators, televisions, radios, cars, washing machines or hand mixers.

00:12:56

Striptease presenter

He can't go to stores, daycare centers, movie theaters, hospitals, etcetera. Almost everything that Per touches is made especially for him. His computer is specially made. His telephone is converted, so the microphone and speaker work with compressed air. More and more companies are 'electro-cleaning' offices… One researcher claims that it's mass hysteria. Others think that working with computers does have a harmful effect on our bodies.

00:13:35

Bregtje

Did you ever consider that your illness could be caused by something else?

00:13:43

Per

That's the first hope you have, that whatever you're suffering from is

caused by something that you can cure with medicines or a pill, or whatever. So, that's always the starting point, to find the easiest solution. But it was so obvious that...if you were exposed, you had these problems. If you were not exposed, you didn't have these problems.

00:14:13

Bregtje

But radiation is also natural, right?

00:14:16

Per

Yes, but... what we are seeing with the development of radio-based technology is that we use large areas of the spectrum that nature hasn't prepared us for. Of course, we should expect things to happen then. Most of the people are somewhat sensitive, and some people, like me, are more sensitive. We are like the canaries in the coal mine. We react before others do.

00:14:48

Per

The problem is actually increasing. And more people are affected, than we know of.

00:16:12

Anouk

You can have the other one.

00:16:14

Anouk

Do you remember how it works?

00:16:23

Son Anouk

Like this.

00:16:25

Daughter Anouk

You have to go like this. 1786.

00:16:25

Anouk

And now I measure 835. See? If it's this high, I get a headache. My ears hurt and get stuffy. And I get a twinge in my ears.

00:16:40

Daughter Anouk

What's a twinge?

00:16:41

Anouk

A sharp pain, as if someone

is stabbing me in the ear. It's like a bee stinging.

00:16:47

Daughter Anouk

I had that in my foot once.

00:16:50

Anouk

That hurt, didn't it?

00:16:53

Daughter Anouk

Mom, you know what you have to do?

00:16:58

Anouk

Yes, let's keep on moving. Let's be quick, because I don't want to stay in it for too long. Let's take a peek. It's 390 here. Well, this is the culprit. This cell tower has 3G, LTE...

That's a lot of radiation, and I think it has Internet of Things, too. And what do we want this tower to do?

00:17:19

Children Anouk

Go away!

00:17:21

Anouk

Yes, get rid of it.

00:17:23

Daughter Anouk

Get rid of the phone.

00:17:24

Anouk

Yes, that too. Maybe we can mess with the cables.

00:17:32

Son Anouk

Yes, we'll just cut up the cables.

00:17:37

Anouk

That's not allowed, you know.

If I did that...

00:17:40

Daughter Anouk

You'd go to jail.

00:17:42

Anouk

That's a possibility.

00:17:44

Daughter Anouk

We'll cut it down and replace it with fake towers.

00:17:48

Anouk

Fake towers? We could do that.

00:17:58

Anouk

Since 2011... I had an office space... that was close to a number of cell phone towers. That's when I suffered from chronic exposure to cell tower radiation. I got very ill, and I developed electro-hypersensitivity. I'm worried. My children are growing up in a world

with more and more wireless devices.

Radiation levels are increasing.

At friends' houses, at school.

It's everywhere.

00:18:43

Anouk

According to policy, the towers should be placed in industrial areas... ...and now we have a tower close to a neighborhood full of children. The big question is...will you stand up against it, or will you look the other way?

00:19:10

Daughter Anouk

Yes, this one is for Mats.

00:19:13

Eddy – Husband Anouk

One more, here.

00:19:16

Daughter Anouk

For Mommy.

00:19:16

Anouk

Pass it on, I'll get some ice cubes.

00:19:24

Eddy – Husband Anouk

Right... This is hot. Last one.

00:19:25

Anouk

For you.

00:19:26

Eddy – Husband Anouk

Great. I put the lid on it.

00:19:30

Anouk

Here, take one if you want one. So, here we go.

00:19:37

Eddy – Husband Anouk

Do I have a spoon?

00:19:39

Daughter Anouk

Can I have one?

00:19:39

Anouk

What's on your T-shirt?

It says: Being offline is the new online.

00:19:43

Daughter Anouk

Just say it in Dutch.

00:19:49

Anouk

Actually, they're saying... What are they saying?

Do you understand it?

00:19:54

Daughter Anouk

Yes, to put your phone away. Morris and Evi have a small phone. They can watch videos, but they can't call or text with it. It's a toy phone.

00:20:12

Anouk

I think Mats would like that too.

00:20:15

Eldest son Anouk

No, I want a smartphone.

00:20:16

Anouk

Right.

00:20:18

Eldest son Anouk

I want to do more than take pictures.

00:20:23

Anouk

How many kids in your class

have a phone now?

00:20:25

Eldest son Anouk

I think... about 25 out of 29.

00:20:32

Anouk

Do you know when the other kids

will get one?

00:20:37

Eldest son Anouk

Next year, I think. Then, I'll get bullied.

00:20:44

Anouk

What do you mean?

00:20:45

Eldest son Anouk

That's what the kids say.

00:20:48

Anouk

What kids?

00:20:49

Eldest son Anouk

The ones that are in middle school now. I hate not having a smartphone.

00:20:57

Anouk

Oh, do you? I hate that you're being bullied because you don't have a phone.

00:21:00

Eldest son Anouk

So, if I'm bullied, I'll get one.

00:21:06

Anouk

No, I didn't say that.

00:21:09

Eldest son Anouk

What the hell?

00:21:59

Per

We had a pack of wolves fighting,

maybe 100 meters away from here.

So, I actually started carrying

my hunter's knife with me,

to make me feel more confident,

so I would not be afraid. They are very scary... very big and not at all afraid. If you want to get away from the towers, you have to move somewhere where people don't live,

and usually it's places like this,

with snakes, and ticks and angry insects that try to eat you.

00:22:41

Per

Due to the growing use of wireless technology, I could no longer stay in Stockholm. So, I built a meter, and that meter was passed on to Inger's mom. She drove across this part of the country looking for

places with low radiation, where there were very few houses, but at least one. It's a very radio-quiet area. That's actually the reason we live here. We have food deliveries once a week. A very nice gentleman from Sri Lanka. He comes here and we give him a list of all the things we need. He doesn't have a smartphone. He turns all of those things off when he comes to our place.

00:24:18

Per

My children were very upset and sad

that I had to leave my home

in such a rush. It was a very tough time for them, especially for my daughter. She was still young, and I was...never in her life.

00:24:38

Presenter

You did the shopping

when you were three?

00:24:41

Daughter Per

Yes, I did it,

because he can't do it himself. So I get the groceries. It's not such a long walk. We walk a lot, we go skiing, and he often reads to me.

00:24:55

Presenter

What are things

that you can't do together?

00:24:59

Daughter Per

Go to the movie theater or the pool.

He can't go near the city.

00:25:17

Per

We had a small boat, and we would go out on Lake Mälaren and row to the backside of the island. And everything is quiet in your head. It was paradise. Then we would go back to civilization. The noise in your head comes back. I had to get home before they turned the street lights on, because I couldn't stand the emissions. They were very painful to me. Sometimes, we were late.

So, she would run in front of me. She would shout: Hurry, Daddy. Soon they'll turn the street lights on. So, yes. She understood.

00:26:24

Per

At that time, the distance between

the towers was fairly large, but nowadays they are everywhere.

There's no place to hide.

I haven't been any further away

from here than a couple of kilometers in eighteen years. I've lived here eighteen years. And this is my whole universe.

00:27:31

Mark Zuckerberg

It takes courage to choose hope

over fear. To say that we can build something and make it better than it has ever been before. And people will always call you naïve. But it's this hope and this optimism that is behind every important step forward. I hope that we have the courage to see that the path forward is to bring people together, not push people apart. To connect more, not less.

00:28:35

Asaka

I haven't slept since 11 pm... because of severe headaches and ear ringing. Every day, I feel like I am being shot over and over again... by some invisible gun. The radio waves make my body feel as if it is being shot by tiny bullets, 24/7. I'm starting to get so many letters from my fellow electro sensitives.

00:29:20

Fellow electro sensitive

Dear Ms. Kojima. Hello. I understand how you feel to an excruciating extent. There were times I couldn't stand up...due to intense headaches and cardiac pain. As fellow sufferers... it's probably best for us to stay in touch through hand-written letters. Please take care of yourself.

00:31:16

Asaka

I pray for the removal of all

electromagnetic waves from smart meters. Wi-Fi points, and cell towers. I ask from the bottom of my heart that my family, my neighbors, and I will be protected.

00:32:25

Asaka

March 13th. A fellow sufferer from Nara told me...that Japan has over 100 million utility poles.

00:32:34

Asaka

This is the safe analogue meter,

with the spinning disk inside. The smart meter is digital. It is either black or grey. When the waves get into my house. I get ringing in my ears, and my head gets fuzzy.

That goes on for some time, and then the nosebleed starts. It's moving. I mean, really moving.

00:32:50

Asaka

Hello, how are you? I'm Kojima. Thank you for supporting us against the smart meters.

There's an old lady who also can't stay in her house. I'm asking people to show the electric companies that they're against smart meters.

00:33:47

Asaka

'I am electrosensitive.’

You made this?

00:33:51

Japanese lady I

Every time I ride the train...I show the staff this tag and sit at the very end of the train. This landline phone is analogue. Without a transmitter. It costs 1,980 yen. Ours is analogue, too. It has to be. And in this room, too, there is no electric radiation. My family understands and supports me.

00:34:19

Asaka

So, your family doesn't use cell phones?

00:34:22

Japanese lady I

Rarely around me. They keep it on airplane mode, or they'll use it when they're far away from me.

00:34:32

Japanese lady II

My husband always turns his off

before coming home. My family knows I'm ill, but I feel they also think I'm exaggerating. I am not sure if they sympathize with my suffering.

Japanese lady III

Electric cars are a problem, too!

00:34:52

Asaka

Electric cars, too. And solar panels. So, how are we supposed to live in Japan?

00:35:02

Japanese lady I

Japan is becoming a "ubiquitous society”.

00:35:05

Japanese lady III

Everything is connected.

Japanese lady I

Our government knows, but they're hiding it.

00:35:12

Japanese lady II

As long as our illness isn't recognized, the government isn't going to move.

00:35:41

Asaka

June 30th. To the Governor of Tokyo. At present, I am unable to find a place to live in Japan where I feel safe. I just cannot stay in my house. But as a citizen of Japan, I have the right to live a healthy life in Japan.

00:36:23

Municipal officer

Welcome to the municipal appeal commission. Could you please limit the information to what the commission needs to know for its advice?

00:36:34

Anouk

I'm very worried. Smartphones and new frequencies are not tested before they are released on the market. More and more studies are showing that there are serious health risks. Why doesn't this municipality

follow its own antenna policy? That says that towers should not be placed near residential areas...but preferably in industrial areas.

Now, there's a tower radiating

in a neighborhood full of kids. I measured 5,000 and even 20,000. It's just absurd. It makes me furious. I have a book here.

"Cell Phones," by George Carlo. Published in 1998 already. This is from 1998, and it proved that cell phone radiation could cause cancer.

They shut him up. The big question is: will you stand up against this, or look the other way?

00:37:46

T-mobile

That's very unfortunate. Still, we don't see a connection to our devices. The plaintiff is worried about the installation's effect...

on general health. She has physically felt worse since the tower was put up. Well, at T-Mobile, we adhere to the scientific advice in these matters. Professional measuring equipment is very expensive and has to be approved

and gauged on a regular basis. I can't say whether the complainant measured with the appropriate equipment for this purpose.

Converted to volts per meter the complainant's 20,000 microwatts

per square meter comes down to 2.75 volts per meter. Everywhere in the country, we measure 0.5 to 4 volts per meter. Here, we measured 2.75 volts per meter. So, those are completely normal values. The Health Board was backed up by the knowledge platform Magnetic Fields...

00:38:58

Eddy – Husband Anouk

Yes, I see it.

00:38:59

Anouk

Yes.

00:39:08

Eddy – Husband Anouk

I think that's in preparation

for those self-driving cars. They want everything to be connected.

00:39:14

Anouk

Those antennas aren't enough, they'll probably need a whole lot more.

00:39:19

Eddy – Husband Anouk

Let's see whether the school

is far enough from the cell towers. And I'm curious about the atmosphere in the village. Let's see if we can

feel at home there.

00:39:43

Anouk

Did you switch your phone off?

Did you get the message that we're looking for a house with low radiation levels?

00:39:50

Real Estate Agent

Yes. Let's see if this works for you.

00:39:53

Eddy – Husband Anouk

It's OK, Eighties style.

00:39:55

Anouk

A bit old-fashioned. It's OK, but nothing special.

00:40:17

Anouk

This is not good. But it's not grounded, so... Here, it's a bit lower.

00:40:29

Eddy – Husband Anouk

Ready?

00:40:31

Anouk

Yes, I'm coming.

00:40:39

Eddy – Husband Anouk

What a nice village. Do they have a cell tower here? Did you see one?

00:40:45

Anouk

No, they don't have one.

00:40:48

Eddy – Husband Anouk

Nothing?

00:40:49

Anouk

No, so that could be tricky. There might be one coming soon then.

00:40:57

Eddy – Husband Anouk

I hear pigs.

00:40:59

Anouk

Yes, that sounded like a pig.

00:41:01

Eddy – Husband Anouk

Yes, it's a small pig. A climbing tree.

00:41:13

Anouk

Yes.

00:41:19

Eddy – Husband Anouk

The question is: Do we want to do the work?

00:41:22

Anouk

Yes.

00:41:24

Eddy – Husband Anouk

Both of us.

00:41:28

Eddy – Husband Anouk

Nice old switches.

00:41:30

Anouk

A lovely place

00:41:45

Anouk

Look, here it's really good.

As low as it gets... Green light, Eddy.

00:41:52

Eddy – Husband Anouk

This is good.

00:41:53

Anouk

Yes, I can feel it. You, too?

00:41:56

Eddy – Husband Anouk

I can't feel it.

00:41:59

Anouk

That's why it's so good. What do you say, can we be friends? You can hardly see them, but there are towers back there.

00:42:20

Eddy – Husband Anouk

Are you measuring?

00:42:22

Anouk

It's low. That's good.

00:42:24

Eddy – Husband Anouk

That's OK, then.

00:42:28

Anouk

How big is this school?

00:42:30

Teacher

We have about 100 students.

00:42:32

Anouk

So, every grade has one class then?

00:42:36

Teacher

No, all the classes are combination

classes, 1 and 2, 3 and 4, 5 and 6.

00:42:41

Anouk

Do all the classrooms have Wi-Fi?

00:42:43

Teacher

Yes. They use iPads, everything.

00:42:48

Anouk

Do they have a separate class room where all the computers are?

00:42:53

Teacher

The computers are in the common room. But there are also computers in all the classrooms.

00:42:59

Anouk

Well, it was really nice to see this. Yes.

00:58:28

Per

Usually, Inger chops the wood.

00:43:24

Bregtje

Are you afraid the cell towers

are coming closer to this place?

00:43:31

Per

This is a special reserved area. They're not allowed to put up towers here. Hopefully, we'll be able to protect this place, but it's a dark future.

00:43:48

Per

There are a large number of EHS patients who have moved to a small community. It's probably the best place to be in the United States, close to these big space telescopes. Because mobile phones and wireless

gadgets are not allowed. So, EHS patients can live there.

00:44:08

Bregtje

You could live there, too.

00:44:10

Per

Yes, probably. It would be a nice change. But how would I get there? I don't have submarine.

00:44:35

Tour Operator Greenbank

We will be traveling into

the National Radio Quiet Zone.

It's the world's only legislated

quiet zone at this time. Radio towers and cell phone towers are just not permitted, because the signals they create compete with the ones our telescopes are trying to detect.

Please ensure that all electronics

are turned off at this time, and we'll resume our tour. Now, just to the left is the Howard Tatel telescope. It was Dr. Frank Drake who, in 1960, used this very instrument to do the first-ever search for extraterrestrial intelligence.

A project known as Ozma. The Observatory added all of these trees you see, because leaves on trees can help mitigate some of those signals from all of the electronics around us.

We do have neighbors who move here

to enjoy the quiet zone, as a refuge from electronic devices in our everyday life.

Woman Greenbank I

OK, somebody... Diane? Does this usually smoke like this?

00:46:09

Woman Greenbank I

Then I have to go into a shielded room and wait there... You could go crazy. Even prisoners have a little light coming in. No, seriously.

00:46:20

Woman Greenbank II

It's funny, but true.

00:46:22

Woman Greenbank I

How could you live in something like

that if you're claustrophobic?

00:46:28

Woman Greenbank III

I can't be in those houses.

I had to leave.

00:46:33

Woman Greenbank III

I've learned to make a good thing

out of a bad situation.

00:46:40

Woman Greenbank I

Coming here, we slept in a tent for four weeks. And my body... I just felt so much better. All of the electricity was drained out of me. It was the most incredible experience. We'd contact our kids, and they were like: Mom's camping? "How's mom?" You know?

I mean, I've never slept in a tent

in all my life, so... When I went back to New York, I really suffered. I spent most of the winter in my car. I could not handle my house. We did come back about 8 months later. And we decided, together, for me to stay. I never went back. I've made a life for myself here. They do come to visit me, but it's really not the same as being there.

00:47:31

Woman Greenbank IV

I had lived in Atlanta for 3 years,

had a professional career there...

I had an architecture firm.

I gave up a lot to come here.

00:47:42

Woman Greenbank II

Probably more than anything, I miss being able to go out into the world, travel, go into any building and not hurt. I really miss that. We're so limited now.

00:47:58

Woman Greenbank I

Their plan is to make ubiquitous wireless Internet on the whole planet.

00:48:04

Woman Greenbank II

Well, if they're going

to take over the world with their technology, they need to provide spaces for us. When I walk into a restaurant, it hurts me to walk in there, because there's Wi-Fi. Where are my rights? Where are our rights? This is our world, too.

00:47:59

Woman Greenbank III

Turn it off.

Stop ubiquitous global Wi-Fi

deployed from space.

Stop 5G antennas.

No to wireless Internet from space.

Turn it off. Get wired. Protect yourself from hacking and health issues.

Save the landline phones.

Fiber only: yes.

Wireless everywhere: no.

Congress, get involved and do your job.

00:49:41

Woman Greenbank III

I made little plaques for them.

Can I start setting them up?

00:49:45

Woman

Yes, but we should have people here.

So, put it in front of the people.

00:49:51

Woman Greenbank III

OK, where should it go? It's about radiation. It's mainly about the health issue.

00:49:56

Police Officer

OK, the health concerns

behind technology. Got it.

00:50:02

Protester

Hi, good to see you. I've heard

a lot of good things about you.

00:50:05

Man

Thank you, the same with you.

00:50:08

Woman Greenbank IV

Hello, hello? Can you hear me?

Can you hear me? You can hear me?

Cell phone... I know that I did not sign up for my children to be part of this massive, grand experiment that we have going on. I did not give my consent. With every new technology

that we bring into our lives...

we need to be asking the question:

How will it affect future generations? Why aren't the American people being warned? And who will be liable?

00:50:56

Per

The industry, of course, has to be able to sell you this equipment

without making you worry

about the consequences. It's their bread and butter. If you look at the whole science base, at least half of these reports show that you have health effects. So, the authorities should be more careful about what science they look at and who is paying for that science. This is corruption of science. And being a scientist,

I think this is a shame. Sooner or later, we'll have to change the way we live.

00:51:39

Protester

We are electro-magnetic beings.

We conduct. And we are messing

with the basic functioning of our cells. We are microwaving our population. Why is it that fertility is so far down in industrialized countries? We are microwaving

our reproductive organs and wondering why we're having these problems.

The lies of the industry

are magnificent. We already know that the wireless industry has met with the president and gotten his commitment to facilitate the roll-out of 5G near people's homes.

We must counter that. We must counter it ourselves. No one is going to do anything about this... We are going to do something about it, you are going to do something about it. You are going to do what I did: come to Washington, stay in Washington, talk to the representatives who are completely ignorant and are voting for these bills that are stripping away your rights and exposing you to this harmful microwave radiation. It must stop, and it must stop now. They don't give a crap. It's time we demand they give a crap.

00:53:28

Bregtje

Would you ever go out

into the world again?

00:53:33

Per

Of course, there's always hope.

I'm an optimist, so... What is stopping me is, of course, that if I try to do that now, I would fall unconscious before I got there.

And you can only wear this suit

for so many hours. A good summer day, and I become very warm in the sun, and that is really good for my body. So, I don't feel too much pain, and life is perfect.
