!!! REVENGE AGAINST THE SMART METERS!!! HOW TO MAKE THEM DUMB!!!

Edison Electric recently installed a smart meter on my house, without my permission or knowledge. When I read about the dangers and invasion of privacy caused by these smart meters and discovered that I now had one, I was pissed. Too late to do anything about it? WRONG!!!

You see, the antenna for these meters is located inside the glass (or plastic) bulb. All I had to do was to cover the entire glass bulb with aluminum foil, making sure that the foil was grounded to the metal housing behind the bulb. This shields against any RF or Microwave transmissions, which both protects you from the radiation and also defeats the entire purpose of the smart meter, since they can't read it remotely.

Then I sat back and waited for them to realize that they weren't getting any readings from my house. I checked the foil periodically to see if it was still there. Today it happened. They had to send some one out to rip the foil off of my meter to get a manual reading! I found the foil ripped off and laying on the ground. Naturally, I just re-applied the foil and now look forward to them having to send somebody out each and every month to remove the foil if they want to get a reading. If everyone would do this, it would defeat the entire smart meter program! They would have to re-think all of the money that they are spending to install these dangerous and privacy invading devices simply because people can render them dumb with 10 cents worth of aluminum foil!

I say everybody should rise up and "FOIL" this disgusting smart meter program!

Hey, its my house, I can apply foil where ever I want!

The sad part, is that this won't be for long. Mark my words. They will make it illegal for you to even touch that abomination, even though it is on YOUR property.

there has to be a smart way to just kill the electronics in these. i dont think magnets would work. where is EMP doom when you need it?

Foil to the rescue again!!! good stuff!!!

Did you even try calling them up and asking what's going on?

If this thing really has 'dangers' and is an 'invasion of privacy' as you write, then you should have no problem calling them up or perhaps authorities then, right?

Please explain what it is exactly that is so bad about these smart meters.

Only one problem they will give you an estimated bill.

true

Are you kidding?!?

Thank you for contributing to this message!

Beautiful OP!
We're starting to see them in Australia.
Saves me from using a sledge hammer on them.

Next time time they come around to read the meter because of the foil cover, get your viscious dog to guard it, hehehe.

Utilizing an advanced ElectroSmog Electropollution Detector from Germany HF 35C 800 MHz - 2500 MHz, the Smart Meter from SDG&E placed on my home without notice Nov 2010 was tested last week. Sempra Utilities SDG&E's Smart Meter produced a burst of ELF microwave radiation 1000s more powerful than a cell phone call at greater than 2000 uW/meter squared power levels every 5 to 15 seconds throughout the day and night. This meter is 10 feet from my studio broadcast desk. Testing beside my wife's side of our bed, Friday August 26th 2011, pointed 20 yards to our neighbors garage mounted SDG&E meter, every 2 to 5 seconds a burst of ELF microwave radiation was detected over limit 2000+ uWatts of power per square meter.

EMP those Smart Meters
