Bonkers British MPs rant: 5G signals cause cancer

Its not like we have had serious radiation leaks all over the world OR created other nasty things.

5G or not, we still have a lot of other major possible causes for our current situation on the earth other than just CO2 emissions or Radio signals.

We (as a race) still set off nuclear ordinance as a fairly regular thing, then there is Chernobyl, Fukushima Daiichi and Sellafield, then there is the total failure of most countries (USA in particular) with dealing with radioactive waste. the radiation and heat from that even stored or set off underground may actually be having an impact too.

Since we first harnessed that sort of power, be it for energy and the good of mankind or for the eradication of mankind (depending on point of view) we have been noticing increases in cancers and other such things around the world, any possibility that might be a cause? probably but who knows, we as always are only guessing on the range of effect.

The spike in health issues could correlate to that quite easily, but it could be that we have had an increase in population across the world combined with global communication.

With modern medicine prolonging life beyond what it once was, it does make sense that what would have originally killed you at 40 not being around would mean something else would turn up to terminate the subject and that information would then be documented and put on some form of statistical analytics.

It doesn't matter what scientific research you use to argue your side of any of these cases, there will always be a counter to that somewhere. Be it slightly inaccurate, totally false or bang on the money.

We all have to remember in the last 200 years we have gone from pigeon to twitter in terms of mass communications alone.

The ability to harness technology has been our boon, but it could also be our own Kryptonite but we just don't know yet.

The likelihood we will ever know what causes the end of us is near zero, because by the time someone figures it out...well, by then its probably far too late to stop it, whatever it is.

So we may as well enjoy life, however we currently do. Even if its randomly spouting diatribes that go on forever on a message board on The Register or sitting by a pool enjoying the sunshine sipping a margarita.
