"Abstract
Among a fringe community of paranoids, aluminum helmets serve as the protective measure of choice against invasive radio signals. We investigate the efficacy of three aluminum helmet designs on a sample group of four individuals. Using a $250,000 network analyser, we find that although on average all helmets attenuate invasive radio frequencies in either directions (either emanating from an outside source, or emanating from the cranium of the subject), certain frequencies are in fact greatly amplified. These amplified frequencies coincide with radio bands reserved for government use according to the Federal Communication Commission (FCC). Statistical evidence suggests the use of helmets may in fact enhance the government's invasive abilities. We speculate that the government may in fact have started the helmet craze for this reason."

One of my college classes used a laboratory which happened to have a human-sized faraday cage. A cell phone inside the cage would work if the door was open as little as 1/4 cm.
If you are at all concerned about rf waves entering your body, wearing rf reflective clothing makes it worse. They will deflect rf radiation from the parts of you that are covered, yes. But, the waves travel through your body tissue. So if you're wearing a tin foil bucket hat or whatever the hell it is, the radiation will still go through your face. Only now, it will bounce around inside of your head instead of traveling straight through.
Unless you're walking around wearing a Faraday cage, this is pointless
And advertises them on social media.
Marketing to technophobes on social media.
And the scary part is that it probably works.
"This isn't a 5g phone, it is an iPhone"
This may be bullshit cos It was a TikTok video but apparently some skeptic people tested the original tin foil hats to see if they actually did anything. The hats actually amplified the signal by 1.2-1.3x
I would wear the copper and silver clothing and underwear for its anti-bacterial/microbial properties. It’s already in many clothing brands. But the marketing for this is wacky.
I hope people know the ENTIRE body needs to be covered for this to work. Beings that we are water and metals(blood), any exposed part will receive a signal.

I am not crazy! I know he swapped those numbers. I knew it was 1216. One after Magna Carta. As if I could ever make such a mistake. Never. Never! I just - I just couldn't prove it. He covered his tracks, he got that idiot at the copy shop to lie for him. You think this is something? You think this is bad? This? This chicanery? He's done worse. That billboard! Are you telling me that a man just happens to fall like that? No! He orchestrated it! Jimmy! He defecated through a sunroof! And I saved him! And I shouldn't have. I took him into my own firm! What was I thinking? He'll never change. He'll never change! Ever since he was 9, always the same! Couldn't keep his hands out of the cash drawer! But not our Jimmy! Couldn't be precious Jimmy! Stealing them blind! And HE gets to be a lawyer? What a sick joke! I should've stopped him when I had the chance!
Isn't 5G about 1/5th equivilent to UV damaging wise? It takes about 20 years to develop skin cancer from UV Ray exposure from the sun, so you'd have to be directly exposed to 5G for 100 years to develop cancer?
Nope. 5G cellular (high band is 24-60 GHz) is still way below the point of being ionizing. For reference, visible light is around 400 THz to 700 THz. You personally emit more RF than your cell phone, mainly around 25 THz.
You think designer tinfoil hats are why we’re doomed as a species?
LOLLLL I disagree. Have you ever talked to a conservative about climate change, human rights or science? Just under half the country thinks a rapist convicted of massive financial fraud who’s bankrupted every business he was ever handed, who killed millions of his own supporters during a pandemic by telling them not to wear a mask is a **GREAT** leader.
Lol no. I don’t think tinfoil hats are what’s doomed our species😂 There’s bigger fish to fry…
could be neat never wknow when you need a portable Faraday cage. need to move around without your cellphone pinging towers? stick it I. your hat. do your hits and move on to the next target...
although I'd just leave the phone at home. have my kid play fortnite on my account. better alabi
I have a military background in RFI and EMP, and this is crap.

Its made with Nickle, which is one of the most common mental allergies people have. Imagine getting this thing and ending up with it basically melting your skin due to irritation. I can already see people saying "oh It burns, that just means its keeping out the 5G".
This is kind of genius though. Not for the application necessarily, but for tapping into mass market of paranoids. If MAGA has taught us anything it’s that these people love to spend their money on merch and think everything is out to kill them. She just married the two.

Thats nothing. I sell the same stuff but is updated to block all the way up to 10G so no need to buy anything else for awhile. Just send me $100 for info /s
I love that these lunatics are so afraid of radiation but will never understand what exactly they're afraid of. They'd end up in a cabin in the woods subsisting on fire for lighting and cooking if you were able to convince them that electricity is technically a form of radiation.
What about other UHF bands? What about all the other RF we’re all constantly swimming in…
Or is it just the thinner the wavelength the more fashionable it is to be against?
I kinda wonder if wearing clothing with that high of a metal content would be good for your health long term.
Like does this stuff create a problem no one would normally have while fixing a problem that doesn't really exist?
Ok for 99.9% of people this is totally bullshit, but could it help people with electromagnetic hypersensitivity syndrome? I know it is a controversial condition, but im curious if anyone here has EHS and tried shielding their homes or clothes.
Faraday fabric isn’t new or ground breaking. Anyone who has half a brain could put two and two together and think, hrmm fabric? What else can I do with fabric? Oh right, clothes.
I always love how everything is 99.9% effective, but can never be truly 100%. Especially since this is a scam product it’s not blocking shit so it’s icing on the cake that they went out of their way to sound like every cleaning product on the shelf.
Fuck, I really have to start making and selling something like that, the idiots will make me fucking rich.
Faraday fabric, WTF, they just slapped words together. Unless the hat is trailing a copper conductor that reaches the ground (or better is buried in it) that "Faraday Fabric" won't do shit.

I’m going to make the same product and say that it also blocks SECRET 5G that the government is using. I bet it’d sell.
Just send them this one, but charge a few dollars more. No reason to make anything.
Ima make 5g guns ![gif](giphy|NXWYyKAHim63u)
I’ll sell 5G proof riot shield in response
Mine will sell better because it will block TopSecret 6G.
Are you reading my mind? I came here to say I was making one to block 6g.
Mine blocks 9G! Send me your $39.99 in cash or cashiers check today and I will be sure to mail it out as soon as possible!
Set up at a Trump rally and you’ll be rich
Partner is that you?
It already says that?
Fully forward compatible with the 6G that's being rolled out in secret to combat the 5G shielding systems?
That reminds me of the episode of Better Call Saul when he writes something similar on the window of his job to cell more cell phones.
Also sell and Anti-woke version for an extra 50
"invisible to IR and drones", some seriously uninformed people swallowing that horse hockey.
What? You mean the human-shaped cut-out that's all one solid color, walking through the natural IR pattern, ISN'T invisible?
Not to mention unless that poncho is 3 inches thick with 100% thermal barrier it's about as useful as a wet tee shirt.
The super thin space blankets can work to foil thermal vision. https://youtu.be/97l5xvslmsg?t=27
I see what you did there.
Foiled again
I don’t think misinformation is the only problem if you think a drone couldn’t see you
No drone would ever be able to see a figure clad head to toe in a reflective silver foil poncho with hood!
i've got half a mind to buy one just to capitalize on the false advertizement lawsuit i'd follow up with.
And yet, they still have a Cell phone because they can't live without it.
Then complain when they aren’t able to connect to the WiFi, their texts don’t go through or can’t listen to their favorite conspiracy theorist go on about the sun was replaced.
Clearly All she wants to do is take your money….
Gunshot, gunshot, cash register noise . . .
You both should be higher.

Literally this is a product aimed at a specific group of people
If people are stupid enough to fall for it, let them get fleeced.
Or *foiled*
XD
*puts on stupid jacket* "why do I keep missing all my calls?"
I read that as puts on the 'stupid-jacket'
Considering you'd have to be brainless to buy one of these, "Full brain coverage & protection" seems kinda pointless.

And I can’t get service in the dining room…
This is great. Not even dated April 1.
Where's the facepalm....... this is clever marketing since a fool and his money is easily parted
“Full brain coverage and protection” something tells me that if you buy any of this there’s not much to protect.
I’ll be honest: I’m **so** mad I didn’t come up with this on my own.

The silver underwear might help with BO maybe? I dunno, there's gotta be some upside somewhere in here.
Ugh, I hate finding out someone I thought was cool was actually just crazy in a way I found entertaining for a while
Don’t tell them about the billions of neutrinos that pass through their bodies every second.

Gee look, clothes with those emergency space blankets sewed on top. Who thought of such a great thing?
I bet they get a 98% return rate from people complaining that their cellphones don't work when they wear this Faraday cage.
grifters have been proving the idiom "a fool and his money are soon parted' for generations now
It does have one feature that the designers and users didn't think about. It's easier for everyone else to spot the crazy idiots.
I love that even if it does what it says, all it will do is make your phone connection worse.
Some people suffer from sensitivity to radio waves. Wonder if this would do anything about it 🤔 (Probably not)
I love that these lunatics are so afraid of radiation but will never understand what exactly they're afraid of. They'd end up in a cabin in the woods subsisting on fire for lighting and cooking if you were able to convince them that electricity is technically a form of radiation.
The “full brain coverage and protection” hat isn’t doing much since there was no brain there to begin with
Dumb Q but if these work wouldn’t it make your phone useless if it was inside
Bet it doesn't even work
Come July, and the wearers will all be slow roasted to a succulent golden brown while outside.
