Are Corporations Paving a Perilous Path... Directly Into Our Homes?

What you'll discover will surprise, unsettle and ultimately empower you.

    Fear Mongering
    There are legitimate concerns with smart meters about privacy, inept installations, usage transparency, hacking, and aggressive access to meter locations, but low-power non-ionizing radio photons aren't one of the real concerns. Unfortunately much of this documentary is fear mongering, paranoia, cynicism, confusion of correlation with causation, misinformation, and irrelevant association with other things.
