I went on Facebook (I know I know I know) and they are selling tinfoil hats.

Very interesting. Something I hadn't looked into before, but relevant these days. Thanks for flagging it.

@josh0 @futurebird

Now I really want one of those.

I'm interested in noise pollution and light pollution. Light pollution is horrible for insects. (and birds) Noise pollution is bad for people.

We could have less loud, dark at night (but still safe) cities and towns.

@futurebird if a faraday’s cage is not grounded it can end up amplifying the signal #funfacts

@count_01 @CStamp @futurebird Some people just are wired that way. This product is like... "Ok... you wanna comply with your brain wiring? Now you can without people staring at you for believing in something that lacks scientific consense."

@futurebird @oldclumsy_nowmad @muddle RF *can* hurt you if its high enough power, but that’s generally limited to labs and microwave ovens, not what’s emitted by cell phones

…or anywhere outdoors. you might get a sunburn

@helvick @futurebird I got it from ARSE. Not sure if they’re selling them right now, but they’ve always got fun things. (I like to buy their refrigerator magnets to surreptitiously leave on my friends’ refrigerators and see how long it takes them to notice.)

Me, too. I worry a lot about the impacts our light and noise have on birds and insects. Not to mention pesticides, wildfires, "produced water", and structures (windows, guy wires, turbines) etc. Makes me sick to think about what we're doing to this wonderful living World.

@futurebird And stay off Fox News

@futurebird The rot is out of the hat. We're late. Sorry.

@futurebird sometimes with this sort of thing, my morbid curiosity gets the best of me and i need to know who exactly is behind things — especially when their website has no ‘about us’ type info at all. this interview response from one of their founders (arthur de calenge; the company was formerly called lambs) cracked me up — people are claimed to be noticing positive changes via ~wireless devices that are literally as close to their bodies as possible~

@futurebird I love it is certified to "Military Standards". I looked up IEEE-299, and it applies to enclosures larger than 2 m. The relevant standard for small enclosures is IEEE-299.1.

@david_chisnall @futurebird Well that's just the kind of thing Big 5G would say

...that price tag should be a dead giveaway as to their target demographic.

@futurebird I prefer my brain shields in purple

@sam @futurebird It's entirely likely that their conductive fabric supplier provided them with some kind of datasheet that did have those words on it ... above a table of measurements they didn't understand.

@oldclumsy_nowmad @Anke @muddle

I wonder if one could channel the feeling many people have that "the world is slowly killing me somehow" into things like insisting that new highways don't send horrible rumbling sounds into surrounding neighborhoods?

But CO2 is also invisible and no one wants to care about that...

[noodlemaz@mstdn.games]

@futurebird @oldclumsy_nowmad @Anke @muddle noise pollution is terrible for birds and other animals too. Fuck fireworks in particular.
And it's not just an effect at the time, it's long-lasting disruption for them.
