It is that time of the year again for our electrical meter to be read. In South Australia it is read every 3 months. We decided about 6 months ago against the offer to install a smart meter and opted out. As part of that opt-out I placed a padlock across the meterbox-door to stop any unknown entry without significant effort. I also informed the power company that we did not wish to participate in the exercise. We also placed a weather proof sign to inform anyone who approached the meter that to install this type of meter was against our wishes.
We have had to install a new air-conditioner and fridge in the previous 12 months, so the smart technology within each appliance was a contributing factor in our selection.
I noted that as an accessory of the new car our niece drives, there is smart technology that is aware of her approaching the car in order to unlock the doors and also open the tailgate should she need.
There is a price to pay for all this technology and it is of vital concern to be informed about the possible consequences. I present the following article for consideration.
Radiation emitted from Smart Meters 100 times greater than cell phones - and exposure is constant, doctor warns.

What is it all for? Why, a Carbon Rationing Currency of course!
