Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS) (historically referred to as "Microwave Sickness") is an illness that is both highly controversial and little understood. The symptoms can vary a lot between sufferers, but will normally include some of the following: sleep disturbance, tiredness, depression, headaches, restlessness, irritability, concentration problems, forgetfulness, learning difficulties, frequent infections, blood pressure changes, limb and joint pains, numbness or tingling sensations, tinnitus, hearing loss, impaired balance, giddiness and eye problems. There have been reports of cardiovascular problems such as tachycardia, though these are relatively rare. https://www.powerwatch.org.uk/health/sensitivity.asp

The core of the Bio-Digital Convergence revolves around the introduction of a “New Digital Economy” that integrates social credit systems, affecting everything from health to economic transactions. MacKillop contends that the public is largely unaware of this transformation. He warns of “synthetic biology pathogens,” manipulating human thoughts and behaviors, and the potential for a genetically engineered “superclass” of humans. The implications are vast and complex, ranging from 3D-printed magnetic liquids that can be monitored inside our bodies to mind-altering brain-machine interfaces. - The testimony points to a global operation involving not just Canada but other major nations like the United States, the United Kingdom, Israel, Japan, and China. MacKillop highlights that powerful stakeholders and companies, such as Amazon, Google, Tesla, Walmart, and Starbucks, are deeply invested in these developments. The World Economic Forum and the International Electrotechnical Commission are key players in the decision-making processes.

The urgency of this matter cannot be understated. The looming introduction of a “Central Bank Digital Currency” and a controlled “Internet of bodies and things” is disconcerting. The potential loss of personal freedom, privacy, and autonomy is a harsh reality that cannot be ignored.

The most shocking revelation is the lack of public awareness about these developments. MacKillop stresses that the government does not seek public opinions on these matters; instead, they cater to the interests of shareholders and corporations. Politicians appear complicit; even the media may be silent on these crucial issues.

Thus, it becomes the responsibility of individuals to educate themselves and engage in open discussions about Bio-Digital Convergence. Only by raising awareness and confronting the potential consequences head-on can we hope to slow down or alter this trajectory. - https://lionessofjudah.substack.com/p/unveiling-the-dystopian-future-alarming

2010 - Understanding Current Cyber Attack Trends and Latest Defensive Countermeasures
While the government getting more involved in the fight against cyber terrorism will certainly serve as a strong deterrent for would-be attackers, it will be crucial for utilities and smart grid operators to gain a deeper knowledge of current cyber attack trends and the most effective methods for guarding against these threats.

Today’s hackers are not only sophisticated, but they are becoming incredibly patient. Instead of trying to hack directly into the smart grid, they may circumvent the technical controls by targeting a specific user within the utility.

For example, to get into a utility’s network, a hacker could potentially go to work for a business that sells products or services to a company, which would allow them to have regular e-mail communications with the company’s procurement office. Once the hacker has established a trusted business relationship with the procurement office, they could send an email with advanced malware or a Trojan horse. This will allow them to create a virtual tunnel from the hacker’s computer directly to the procurement office employee’s computer behind the company firewall. At that point, the hacker can access the company’s network without being detected, and use this system as a launch point for further attacks.

While this may sound like an extreme hypothetical situation, similar attacks have already occurred. The threat of technical attack, however, becomes more concerning when discussing the smart grid. A smart grid in any major city could encompass several million customers, giving hackers millions of potential access points into the network. - https://www.powermag.com/new-breed-of-hacker-targeting-the-smart-grid/

Acoustic neuroma:

Acoustic neuroma or Vestibular Schwannoma is a rare benign tumour in the eighth cranial nerve that leads from the inner ear to the brain. It grows slowly and does not undergo malignant transformation, but may give compression of vital brain stem centres. Tinnitus and hearing problems are usual first symptoms of acoustic neuroma. We published a clear, statistically significant, association between use of mobile and cordless phones and acoustic neuroma. The risk increased with time since first use. For use of both mobile and cordless phones the risk was highest in the longest latency group. Tumour volume increased per 100 hours of cumulative use and year of latency for wireless phones indicating tumour progression from RF-EMF. The whole study can be read here:

Nanotechnology is enabling the development of novel devices which are able to generate,process and transmit multimedia content at the nanoscale. The interconnection of pervasively deployed multimedia nano-devices with existing communication networks and ultimately the Internet defines a novel communication paradigm that is further referred to as the Internet of Multimedia Nano-Things (IoMNT). The IoMNT is a truly cyber–physical system with a plethora of applications in the biomedical, security anddefense,environmental and industrial fields,amongst others.This paper discusses the state of the art and major research challenges in the realization of the IoMNT. Fundamental research challenges and future research trends are outlined in terms of multimedia data and signal processing, propagation modeling for communication amongst nano-things in the terahertz band, physical layer solutions for terahertz band communication and protocols for the IoMNT. These include novel medium access control techniques,addressing schemes, neighbor discovery and routing mechanisms, a novel QoS-aware cross-layer communication module, and novel security solutions for the IoMNT.

THE INTERNET OF BIO-NANO-THINGS -
2015 - The Internet of Things (IoT) has become an important research topic in the last decade, where things refer to interconnected machines and objects with embedded computing capabilities employed to extend the Internet to many application domains. While research and devel-opment continue for general IoT devices, there are many application domains where very tiny,concealable, and non-intrusive Things are needed. The properties of recently studied nanomaterials, such as graphene, have inspired the concept of Internet of NanoThings (IoNT), based on the intercon-nection of nanoscale devices. Despite being an enabler for many applications, the artificial nature of IoNT devices can be detrimental where the deployment of Nano Things could result in unwanted effects on health or pollution.
The novel paradigm of the Internet of Bio-Nano Things (IoBNT) is introduced in this paper by stemming from synthetic biology and nanotechnology tools that allow the engineering of biological embedded computing devices. Based on biological cells, and their functionalities in the biochemical domain, Bio-Nano Things promise to enable applications such as intra-body sensing and actuation networks, and environmental control of toxic agents and pollution. The IoBNT stands as a paradigm-shifting concept for communication and network engineering, where novel challenges are faced to develop efficient and safe techniques for the exchange of information, interaction, and networking within the biochemical domain, while enabling an interface to the electrical domain of the Internet.

Internet of Bodies

The Internet of Bodies, or IoB, is actually an ecosystem. It's a bunch of devices that are connected to the Internet that contain software and that either collect personal health data about you or can alter the body's function. We think of the Internet of Bodies as this collection of all these devices, as well as all the data that the devices are gathering about you. And in health care, Internet of Bodies has been around for quite a while. With the advent of the Internet, it makes a lot of sense to connect your pacemaker to the Internet so that your doctor can be automatically notified if something weird happens, if there's an anomaly. It's natural in a lot of ways to want to understand more about your body, how it functions, how well it's doing.

Consumers should be wary of IoB devices because, as it's becoming more and more popular, all of this intimate data is being collected, arguably more intimate data than we've ever really recorded before. There's no clarity on what is being done with that data. You know, with an old mechanical pacemaker, there's no data that was being collected and stored, and, you know, you could look at a history of someone's heart rhythms.

Because policy tends to lag behind innovative technologies like this, it's probably up to the consumers and to the health care patients to really be aware of the devices that they're using and what is happening to their data and to know what the regulations are in their particular state, because it does vary so much state by state. Even if you think you're not interesting or that nothing will happen with your data, there are a lot of unknowns that I think we need to be careful about.

A Review on Bio-Cyber Interfaces for Intrabody Molecular Communications Systems


The recent advancements in bio-engineering and wireless communications systems have motivated researchers to propose novel applications for telemedicine, therapeutics and human health monitoring. For instance, through wireless medical telemetry a healthcare worker can remotely measure biological signals and control certain processes in the organism required for the maintenance of the patient’s health state. This technology can be further extended to use Bio-Nano devices to promote a real-time monitoring of the human health and storage of the gathered data in the cloud. This brings new challenges and opportunities for the development of biosensing network, which will depend on the extension of the current intrabody devices functionalities. In this paper we will cover the recent progress made on implantable micro-scale devices and introduce the perspective of improve them to foster the development of new theranostics based on data collected at the nanoscale level.

IoB Security Risks

IoB devices can be prone to the same security flaws of IoT devices, or any other technology that stores information in the cloud. But, given the nature of IoB devices and the data they collect, the stakes are particularly high. Vulnerabilities could allow unauthorized parties to leak private information, tamper with data, or lock users out of their accounts.

In the case of some implanted medical devices, hackers could potentially manipulate the devices to cause physical injury or even death. - https://www.rand.org/blog/articles/2020/10/the-internet-of-bodies-will-change-everything-for-better-or-worse.html

Keeping patients safe with cyber security standards

From ingestible sensors to X-ray and CT scan machines, the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is revolutionizing patient care in all kinds of settings, especially when combined with artificial intelligence (AI).
Yet the increase in connected devices makes healthcare providers more vulnerable to cyber attacks. IEC has standards to help. (? Hhhmmm...)

Ventilators, organ support machines, infusion pumps and robotics in surgery are just a few examples of connected medical devices, in addition to the plethora of those that patients can wear or ingest for remote monitoring.

Reliance on Data

The technologies and applications featuring biodigital convergence will not be able to operate without a lot of data. For example, the field of bioinformatics uses digital tools and data analysis to understand biological systems,59 including deploying deep learning algorithms to analyze images of cells to detect patterns that humans would find impossible to discern.60 Techniques such as next-generation gene sequencing are hugely data intense, creating new challenges with sharing, archiving, integrating, and analyzing this data.

The global bioinformatics market is projected to grow from 7.73 billion USD in 2018 to 13.50 billion USD in 2023, at a compound annual growth rate of 14.5%.62 The rate of data growth to fuel this expansion could exceed this.

The data required is highly varied. Upstream of the production processes, data may also be an important asset in the form of genomes, phenotypes, and environmental contexts of a diverse set of humans and a wide range of unique organisms. Bioprospecting is already an important aspect of drug development, and may rise in importance – and provoke greater controversy in healthcare.

The full potential of biodigital convergence may therefore require a constant flow of data. Capturing, managing, sharing, and governing this data could become a resource-intensive process and a more highly developed industry in itself.

Energy is the crux of economic growth and development; therefore, a reliable supply of power is a critical prerequisite for the successful operation of smart city initiatives.

The impact of the energy crisis on smart cities, which are still recovering from the effects of the Coronavirus pandemic, has been far-reaching and is having major consequences for businesses, households, and individuals – thereby affecting everyone.

Smart cities are complex and interconnected because they are composed of various sectors, ranging from the manufacturing industry, education, healthcare, transport and the business sector.
Since the start of load-shedding many businesses that were attracted to the cities because of well-functioning smarter infrastructure that lowers operating costs, have had to close or down-scale their employee numbers. In Johannesburg, a Wimpy franchise that has been operating in the Fordsburg area for over five decades has had to permanently close down due to persistent power cuts.
In a conversation with News24, the franchise owner Mr. Ebrahim says, “load-shedding has broken our back, people avoid areas where there is load-shedding or reschedule their day according to the load-shedding schedule, such measures draw business away.”
