Save Our Landlines

OUR ANALOGUE COPPER LANDLINE TELEPHONES PROVIDE RELIABLE, HIGH QUALITY, AFFORDABLE VOICE SERVICE.

Help us maintain full access to our well-established and vital landline network.  


Telecom companies are planning to pull the plug on our essential landlines in favour of less-regulated, less reliable and more expensive wireless phones or Voice-Over-Internet-Protocol (VOIP). They lack a sensible plan to keep people safely and reliably connected. British Telecom (BT), for example, have already been moving customers from landlines to internet connections, although they have temporarily postponed the rollout after escalating complaints from concerned customers.

BT to end landline phones sparking fears for millions of vulnerable and elderly people:  “Around six percent of households – roughly 1.5million homes – do not have access to the Internet, according to watchdog                    Ofcom.” https://www.mirror.co.uk/money/bt-end-landline-phones-sparking-25544885

Dismantling landlines will cost us our safety, health, jobs, and cut off critical emergency communications access to millions of people. We must defend our landlines from unscrupulous telecom companies and governments. If you want to keep your choice to have a reliable landline in your home or business, you need to act now:

Re-investing in our copper telephone landline network will be beneficial to Public Health, Security and Ecology as it serves as a necessary, reliable and safe alternative to power-grid dependent, energy-hungry communications systems like VOIP and mobile phone services. There is no longer any question whether wireless radiofrequency (RF) radiation – used in mobile phone communications and wireless devices – is harmful to humans and wildlife. Commonly identified health consequences of short and longer term exposures include: insomnia, headaches, cancer, autism, and other serious and life changing ailments.

Tens of thousands of scientific papers (linked herein) have cited connections to the role of EMFs in a multitude of adverse health effects, including depression, infertility, cancer, damage to DNA/gene expression, oxidative stress, pregnancy complications, melatonin production, neurological disorders, immune dysfunction, Alzheimers/dementia, leukaemia, and many, many more.

5G ARTICLE RAISES THOUSANDS OF RESPONSES IN 24 HOURS

Online Daily Mail Readers concerned about surveillance, health risks, data mining and increased electrical consumption of 5G.

The world’s most read online newspaper, the Daily Mail, ran an article on 9th February 2022 about the plan to install new 5G devices on road signs, bus shelters and  traffic lights. The UK government has announced it wants to bypass Councils to make it easier for telecoms companies to put antenna on public infrastructure. 

“Phone users need to be closer to so-called 5G ‘cell sites’ in order to receive good signal – as the mobile network, though quicker, has a smaller range. Firms are able to create mini phone masts around towns and cities by installing the kit into street furniture, such as road signs and CCTV poles.

But the process of identifying places to put them has so far proved ‘difficult and time consuming’ – and has held up the roll-out.”

The first 106 comments reveal:

  • Objections to 5G being given priority over lacking 4G coverage 
  • Objections about the energy consumption 
  • Lack of risk assessment or safety reports 
  • 25% of the comments concerned known health implications: cancer, headaches and others 
  • Objections to data mining and implied surveillance 

Here are three of the comments posted:

“Total surveillance of everything, everyone and everywhere. This investment is not so that you can download a film or game a bit quicker. We don’t need it – but THEY DO.” 193 likes, 20 dislikes.

“Lots of children at an American school were getting ill.. all of a sudden headache..nausea.. generally not feeling well as soon as the 5G antenna was installed on the roof of the school.. it was removed the problems went away.” 249 likes, 42 dislikes.

“5G needs 3x more electricity that 4G. So much for the government’s climate change goals” 217 likes, 26 dislikes.

The responses indicate a substantial disapproval of 5G, that people are not fooled by industry’s claims of ‘public benefit’ and object to giving more powers to the tech industry and disempowering their own representatives, and are incensed that £4 million of their taxpayers money is being directed towards boosting tech industry profits.

The most popular comment with 349 likes, seven times more than the 49 dislikes, was “This 5G isn’t for OUR benefit”

note: this is not about so called 5G mmWave sites. Smart city nodes and zones are based in the WiFi spectrum currently, but the issue of densification clearly increases chronic levels of pulse modulated electro smog, and increased data gathering feeds potential surveillance regimes.
