Or do you prefer an ultraviolet tattoo ?

You are a paranoid idiot. I assure you any government agent who attempted to impose any of that would have been treated for his severe lead deficiency before i ever submitted to your FEARED remedies, and if YOU allow it, you are even more of an idiot than you reveal yourself to be in your postings on FR.

The FCC does, in theory, regulate electromagnetic emissions from said devices.

I think we could do with a 60 day moratorium on twitter and face book due to the fact that they are broadcasting false data creating a national panic. This should be renewable if the president feels they will be a threat to the national well being.

The EPA, FCC, FAA, FTC, DOJ, FDA, DE, DoE, DHS, SSA... They don’t control much. You’re a free person with the right to petition, assemble, move freely, speak your mind and have privacy in your person and affects. Just get on a plane and see for yourself how your right to move about freely in this country can be exercised. How you have privacy and no one can just search you or dig in your belongings without probable cause and a court order.

You sir, cant even take a crap in this country without a government agency prescribing how much water the toilet can use per flush and what light bulb you use so you’re not in the dark. Think about that for a second.

Name me one single right in the Bill of Rights that has not been abridged?

You don’t believe your devices can be remotely controlled?
Have you any clue of FCC regulations regarding Federal control of your cell phone.

Nixon was not a likeable person.. the public felt sorry for his wife.. he was brisk and fake.. following Ike who was liked and a general, respected.

Pray that the Democrats and the Deep State never get that authority!

In those days they could not automatically control them like they can these days with internet accessibility.

Uh, no, they don’t. No “theory” about it. The FCC regulates “radio and communication” They are not permitted to regulate the transmission of electricity or the use of electricity. You are essentially saying the FCC could, if they wanted, require licensing of vacuum cleaners. They can’t. They have no authority in that area. NONE. It’s not their purview. Certain consumer electronic products DO have to pass FCC testing, but not every electric device that uses electricity.

I am using my head. It is YOU who is not. YOU are the one who is running around crying “The sky is falling, the sky is falling!” When there is absolutely ZERO evidence for what you are panicking about! Especially this hyperbolic article!

READ THE DAMN LAWS AND REGULATIONS. I know the software installed and what it is capable of doing. YOU obviously do not, and you are trying to tell me what you do not know a thing about, making assumptions that are making a fool out of you.

And you keep on doing it.

They implicitly regulate every device that emanates em radiation. They have the authority to order cease operation of any device that interferes with communications bands.
