In a society obsessed with convenience and connectivity, a silent war is raging—one fought not with bullets or bombs, but with invisible waves. For those suffering from electrohypersensitivity (EHS), this war is personal. But beyond their suffering lies a broader truth: our children, our communities, and our constitutional rights are under attack by a corporate agenda that has hijacked our technological future. This article isn’t about inclusion—it’s about exclusion. It’s about the urgent need to exclude toxic microwave radiation from our lives.
What is EHS? A Humanitarian Crisis Hiding in Plain Sight
Electrohypersensitivity (EHS) is a devastating condition that affects countless individuals worldwide, caused by exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from everyday wireless devices and infrastructure. These are not just inconvenient symptoms. We’re talking about relentless headaches, debilitating fatigue, cognitive impairment, and complete social isolation. And yet, society continues to dismiss the reality of EHS, writing it off as pseudoscience or psychological stress.
But this dismissal isn’t just ignorance—it’s complicity.
One Woman’s Story: From Thriving to Barely Surviving
The animated film “Remembering Nearfield” tells the story of a successful, educated woman whose life was completely dismantled by EHS. Once a business owner and a mother, she became confined to her home, unable to function in a society bathed in invisible poison. Only by building a Faraday cage and cutting off wireless devices was she able to sleep and recover.
Her story is not unique. And that is the problem.
FCC Guidelines: Fraudulent from the Start
The FCC’s safety guidelines for radiofrequency radiation are based entirely on thermal effects—how much heat is generated by radiation. This ignores decades of evidence showing non-thermal biological harm. These outdated, fraudulent guidelines were set in 1996—the same year Section 704 of the Telecommunications Act was passed. Coincidence? Absolutely not.
That law, Section 704, stripped local governments of their ability to object to cell tower placements on the basis of health concerns. It was a direct assault on the First and Tenth Amendments—silencing free speech and trampling state sovereignty. It wasn’t public policy. It was a corporate coup.
Bioinitiative Report: The Science They Don’t Want You to Read
The Bioinitiative Report, compiled by independent scientists and public health experts, recommends a minimum distance of 1500 feet between schools and cell towers. And yet, across the United States, we see towers erected just 400 feet—or even closer—to schools. That’s one-third of the safe distance, sometimes far less. Who profits? Telecom giants. Who pays the price? Our children.
We’re not asking for inclusivity. We’re demanding accountability.
Real People. Real Children. Real Harm.
This isn’t about abstract policy. It’s about the irreversible damage being done to real human beings—especially children. Developing brains are uniquely vulnerable to microwave radiation. The long-term consequences include:
- DNA damage
- Neurological impairments
- Increased risk of cancer
- Hormonal disruption
We’re witnessing a slow-motion catastrophe, and the regulatory agencies are looking the other way.
The Courts Have Spoken. Now It’s Time for Action.
In 2021, the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit ruled that the FCC failed to provide a reasoned explanation for its decision to retain its 1996 safety limits, ignoring thousands of pages of evidence showing biological harm. The courts sided with the people—but the FCC has yet to act. The fraud is exposed. Now, we must demand enforcement.
We Don’t Need Inclusion. We Need Exclusion.
Inclusion is the language of compromise. But when it comes to electromagnetic radiation, there is no room for compromise. We don’t want a society that makes room for harm—we want a society that bans it. That means:
- Excluding wireless infrastructure near homes, schools, and hospitals.
- Excluding outdated laws like Section 704 that strip us of our rights.
- Excluding fraudulent safety standards that endanger public health.
This is not about making space for vulnerable people. It’s about removing the source of the vulnerability.
The Path Forward: Resistance, Reform, and Reclamation
We must:
- Demand the repeal of Section 704 of the Telecommunications Act.
- Enforce non-thermal safety standards based on current scientific evidence.
- Prohibit cell towers and 5G infrastructure near schools and homes.
- Support white zones and EMF-free environments for recovery and refuge.
This is a human rights issue. This is an environmental justice issue. This is a constitutional crisis.
Final Words: The Time to Wake Up is Now
The people suffering from EHS are the canaries in the coal mine. Their pain is not hypothetical. Their isolation is not voluntary. Their suffering is a warning. If we don’t act now to exclude microwave radiation from our daily lives, we will all pay the price—especially our children.
So, no, we don’t want an inclusive world. We want a safe world. A free world. An exclusive world—free of EMF pollution, free of corporate tyranny, and free to protect the health of future generations.
It’s time to end the silence. It’s time to end the fraud. It’s time to reclaim our rights, our airwaves, and our lives.
