    Unscientific mental illness. A waste of time.

    There are some limited shreds of truth; but overall it's largely unscientific paranoid delusional ignorant garbage disguised as science and fact. It would be laughable; but unfortunately many people believe that things like Wi-Fi and cell phone transmissions are a significant direct medical threat. It's not a documentary, it is mental illness and misinformation. The unscientific garbage like in this so-called documentary reminds me of the fools that claim 5G is responsible for Covid-19. I'm more concerned about "smart" technologies that can be used by hackers, terrorists, thieves, abusive authorities to spy on us, track us, frame us, enslave us, discriminate against us, brainwash us, steal from us, terrorize us, and used for warfare. I'm more concerned about backdoors, viruses, malware, trojans, worms, etc. that are sponsored by political organizations, governments and financial institutions that have nefarious intent or are likely to become nefarious. Artificial intelligence is also likely to get out of hand, but this so-called documentary is mostly foolishness. UV (ultraviolet electromagnetic radiation) definitely is a cause of cancer; however cell phone and Wi-Fi radio waves are so weak and are on frequencies that any medical risk is next to nil, however can't be completely dismissed. 5G and cell phone technology and other so-called smart technology is a threat, however for an entirely different reason; China and many of the other states and entities that manufacture and control such technology can use it against the US and other countries for espionage and electronic warfare. So there are many threats; however this so-called documentary is a mentally ill red herring.

    Did not love it...

    I am open-minded about the risks of electro-smog, cellphone technology, 5G, and other emerging technologies. I have grave concerns about the potential threats involving the world-wide SmartGrid that blankets every continent that go much further than those only relating to our physical well-being. Being the cynic I am, I suspect far more nefarious-and intentional-motives relating to worldwide surveillance and control...but I digress, since this documentary did nothing to dig into the possible isles and abuses of this emerging technology.

    The documentary instead focuses on the possible health impact of wireless technology and offers some solutions-all involving global agencies and increased regulatory/governmental oversight-to mitigate a problem that we're still not sure exists. Though the documentary referenced several studies to support its claims and features a few personal (and highly emotional) anecdotes, it relied heavily on fear mongering and scary "what-if" scenarios. I couldn't help but be reminded of the life-threatening dangers of "dirty electricity" I've been hearing since the 80s, and *those* predictions have yet to pan out. There are many good reasons to object to wireless technology; hanging one's hat on what amounts to a "But what about the children!" argument seems lazy and unimaginative at best. A cynic like me might be inclined to harbor suspicions of purposeful misdirection, or maybe another example of the Hegelian Dialectic put to use? But I only can speculate...

    All of this technology comes from the military before it gets passed on to us consumers. We can't get our government to acknowledge (let alone admit) the phenomenon commonly known as "chemtrails" (another technology that may possibly have dire-if unintended-consequences). Wireless technology is no different: they will tell us all we need to know.

    Ultimately, the question this documentary poses (but never came out and admit outright) is one of liability. Who will be held ultimately responsible for the harm caused by wireless technology, corporations or government? Good luck with that: government is so tightly entwined with the global corporations that the two can no longer be separated. And look how well petitioning the government turned out in a similar, tangentially-related issue: vaccine injury. (Pharmaceutical companies aren't legally liable for the harm its products do, either. Imagine.)

    Finally, the filmmakers propose a "very low" tax might be applied to wireless use (spread equally among consumers, tech manufacturers, and the ISPs/providers, of course). Fair in theory, but in practice it would be the CONSUMERS who would ultimately shoulder the cost, as the hardware, manufacturing, and telecommunications companies would all pass their share of the costs along to us.

    TL;dr: Another documentary about an important issue pretending to be fair but hiding a heavy agenda. Look elsewhere for facts.
