I’m going to call bullshit on that premise.
I originally saw a story about it that made its way to The Guardian’s opinion section that had mostly turned into some sort of rant about wealth.
I pulled up a more astronomy-based source, submitted that instead, and commenters n Lemmy went through and decided that the original paper was basically horseshit. Let me link to my submission, just a sec.
I’ll also add that while I was kind of irritated constantly listening to people constantly praise and laud Musk back when he was saying progressive things, now that he’s saying conservative things, listening to people constantly portray him as Hitler reborn is getting even-more-obnoxious than when he was constantly being cheered. I’d kind of like to stop hearing about him so much. He really does not matter to anywhere approaching the degree of news coverage he gets.
Holy shit. Why did I read that.
I didn't and I'm still dumber for having read the headline
The article sourced the daily mail, a NASA scientist, as well as Gizmodo which are some of the best sources one can find. Satellitemap.space sources directly from Space-track.org which defense contractors report to.
The article sourced the daily mail,
You say that like it’s a positive…
Hey now, he also mentioned gizmodo. Which is about on par with the daily mail these days.
“It’s the weekly world news, the eighth most-read paper in the world!
Man gives birth to baby. Now that’s a fact. "
-May, in *So I Married an Axe Muderer”. If you’ve never seen it, I highly recommend. Early Mike Myers movie. Odd, quirky, but funny.
Ex-NASA scientist, and the article goes on to claim that gigahertz frequencies (you know, WiFi, 4g, etc) may cause health risks.
I know the musk circlejerk is pretty big around here, but come on.
I’m sure it’s not what they mean and I’m not gonna read it to confirm, but if you were to disable the door safety feature on your microwave oven, stick your hand in and turn it on, you could probably call the gigahertz-frequency radiation cooking your hand a health risk.
Umm, so do you realize how badly you just destroyed any shred of credibility you had left?
Thank you for identifying a source of disinformation, though; I’m adding it to my block list.

I’ve seen this site get spammed in the past, but it’s been a few months. Guess they’re at it again.
That whole site is an unholy mixture of religion, conspiracy, and Elon Musk. It’s bonkers.
Basically if you see tiblur [dot] com, you can pretty much just report it as spam.
