Blocking EMF (Electro Magnetic Frequencies) including 5G: Don’t be Scammed

To be clear, I do not discount the potential health risks of some types of EMF radiation, particularly 5G and especially when the power levels are significant.

...

Sadly, I had a friend scammed by this $6497 quackery:

Qi Max EMF Protection by Waveguard <== no, I am not going to hyperlink to it...

If you don’t understand how ridiculous the claims are, the multiple defiances of the laws of physics, the absurd medical claims, etc, find someone smarter. Or, in this case, trust your doctor. Even a sub-normal-IQ doctor who just had a concussion and partied with Lizzo and Hunter Biden last night will know how ridiculous it is. Any “studies” are cousin Vinny jerking off in the toolshed.

You cannot block EMF with glass, a magic crystal, a cat turd, a rabbit, or a $6497 self-powering torus field (your best bet on a torus is the local donut shop). Let alone have that magic torus field cover multiple floors of your house. But... if you think you can, I have some magic Tigger turds available for $9999 each plus shipping (ewwww!) (+$1000 for optional aluminum plating), with triple overlapping torus fields when placed at the right distance apart ($4999 custom home consulting visit not included) that multiply the benefits with just one daily application of A1 steak sauce*.

* Hint: multiplying by zero is still zero.

There are ways to block EMF of course. Think in terms of new construction in which appropriate metal shielding is in place, which still won’t block all EMF unless there are multiple and elaborate layering systems in place.

The most well known of such things is a Faraday cage.

Faraday cage or Faraday shield is an enclosure used to block electromagnetic fields. A Faraday shield may be formed by a continuous covering of conductive material, or in the case of a Faraday cage, by a mesh of such materials. Faraday cages are named after scientist Michael Faraday, who invented them in 1836.[1]

A Faraday cage operates because an external electrical field causes the electric charges within the cage's conducting material to be distributed so that they cancel the field's effect in the cage's interior. This phenomenon is used to protect sensitive electronic equipment (for example RF receivers) from external radio frequency interference (RFI) often during testing or alignment of the device. They are also used to protect people and equipment against actual electric currents such as lightning strikes and electrostatic discharges, since the enclosing cage conducts current around the outside of the enclosed space and none passes through the interior.

Faraday cages cannot block stable or slowly varying magnetic fields, such as the Earth's magnetic field (a compass will still work inside). To a large degree, though, they shield the interior from external electromagnetic radiation if the conductor is thick enough and any holes are significantly smaller than the wavelength of the radiation. For example, certain computer forensic test procedures of electronic systems that require an environment free of electromagnetic interference can be carried out within a screened room. These rooms are spaces that are completely enclosed by one or more layers of a fine metal mesh or perforated sheet metal. The metal layers are grounded to dissipate any electric currents generated from external or internal electromagnetic fields, and thus they block a large amount of the electromagnetic interference. See also electromagnetic shielding. They provide less attenuation of outgoing transmissions than incoming: they can block electromagnetic pulse(EMP) waves from natural phenomena very effectively, but a tracking device, especially in upper frequencies, may be able to penetrate from within the cage (e.g., some cell phones operate at various radio frequencies so while one frequency may not work, another one will).
