[Hidden-tech] AT&T vs Verizon vs T-Mobile

[Deborah Chandler]

Hi Mik and all,

First, please read this and see if you feel that WhistleOut is truly
unbiased:

Secondly, the coverage maps are hugely inaccurate. Big Telecom lies about
everything they do. If you choose a plan with a place like Red Pocket, you
can change carriers if one doesn't work out.

Thirdly, as someone who has EMF sensitivity from exposure to all the
wireless tech they have us marinating in, I request that as much as
possible, we go back to reliance on WIRED products and spend less time
using a cellphone or other wireless tech. I know some people travel for
their work, and need to use a cellphone or laptop on the road, but please
remember back in the day, we did not have all this wireless tech. We waited
until we were back home or at the office. Are we really more advanced,
using wireless when it is NOT even secure, it is slower than wired tech, it
takes TEN TIMES the energy of wired devices (yes, it's true), in a time
when the media screams about how we must take climate change seriously? And
as of January they are banning the sale of incandescent lightbulbs
allegedly due to their energy consumption; I have them stockpiled now, I
cannot use LED bulbs. And then there's my friend who died twice on the way
to the hospital in June after being hit head on by a truck whose driver
admitted he was texting and driving. She was very seriously hurt, but thank
God is recovering and will be okay. Do we *really* need cell coverage
EVERYWHERE we go? Or has Big Telecom brainwashed us into thinking we do?

The number of people developing EMF sensitivity is skyrocketing daily. One
day you're fine, next day you're no longer able to tolerate being near a
cellphone or wireless router. I can no longer make one trip to a big box
store without getting sick. I have to rush the trip, getting out as quickly
as possible. And I can do very little of my beloved graphic design.

You can find lots and lots of information on this topic at
https://www.ma4safetech.org, MA for Safe Technology. We just had our
monthly Zoom meeting today at noon.

Sorry if this was not welcomed information. But cognitive dissonance be
damned. There is really never a good time to bring it up. It must be
interjected.

To those who have endured, thanks for listening. Feel free to write me, I
can tell you about recently testifying at the NH statehouse and how the Big
Telecom attempted to send in their Good Squad of lobbyists pretending to be
there for personal reasons, until my colleague ratted them out. I was
elated at her testicular fortitude.

Best,
Deb
