Judge Overturns 5G Deregulation Court Case – FCC Still Wants to Install It Everywhere Despite Increasing Opposition and No Proof It’s Safe

By B.N. Frank

The Federal Communications Commission is not a health or environmental agency.  Its role is to protect the public by regulating the Telecom Industry but it’s been doing the exact opposite for many years and has been identified as a “Captured Agency”.  Staff has primarily included former Telecom employees who return to the industry as soon as they stop working for the government.

The agency’s blind loyalty to the Telecoms has only become more obvious and more dangerous via the “Race for 5G” which is being opposed by a growing list of credible agencies, individuals and organizations (see 1, 2), in addition to hundreds of doctors and scientists (see 1, 2, 3).

The good news is that they’ve lost another court case on 5G deregulation.  The bad news is these folks don’t ever seem to give up, 5G is already running in some U.S. cities, people are sick, and more cities are scheduled to start operating it this year.

From Ars Technica:

One of Ajit Pai’s attempts to eliminate regulation of 5G deployment has been overturned by federal judges.

The Federal Communications Commission last year approved an order that “exempted most small cell construction from two kinds of previously required review: historic-preservation review under the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) and environmental review under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA),” federal judges said in their decision partially overturning the order.

The FCC claimed its deregulation of small cells was necessary to spur deployment of 5G wireless networks. But the commission was sued by the United Keetoowah Band of Cherokee Indians in Oklahoma, the Blackfeet Tribe, and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC). The FCC order was of particular interest to tribal groups because it affected construction on “sites of religious and cultural importance to federally recognized Indian Tribes,” the judges noted. “The Order also effectively reduced Tribes’ role in reviewing proposed construction of macrocell towers and other wireless facilities that remain subject to cultural and environmental review.”

The FCC’s opponents argued that the elimination of historic-preservation and environmental review was arbitrary and capricious, that it violated both the NHPA and NEPA, and that the changes to tribes’ role in reviewing construction was arbitrary and capricious. A three-judge panel of the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit issued its unanimous ruling today.

Judges wrote that Pai’s order “does not justify the Commission’s determination that it was not in the public interest to require review of small cell deployments. In particular, the Commission failed to justify its confidence that small cell deployments pose little to no cognizable religious, cultural, or environmental risk, particularly given the vast number of proposed deployments and the reality that the Order will principally affect small cells that require new construction.

The FCC also failed to “adequately address possible harms of deregulation and benefits of environmental and historic-preservation review,” which means the commission’s “deregulation of small cells is thus arbitrary and capricious,” judges concluded.

The Telecom Industry gave congressional testimony in February that they have no scientific evidence that exposure to 5G is safe.  The FCC continues to champion widespread  installation anyway – by any means necessary.  This includes allowing companies to send satellites into space to blast it from there, and trying to loosen regulations so homeowners can be paid to put 5G antennas on their roofs.

Research has indicated that exposure to all sources of wireless radiation is harmfulnot just 5G – and children are more vulnerable to it than adults.
