Yar: I think a lot of it just comes from random people who see sudo room as a place to
“donate” electronics that they no longer need.
I suspect the laser came from a Berkeley lab. I didn’t know it was dangerous as I was
raised to believe UV-A just tans the skin but according to this 2020 study no, it was
found to be profoundly mutagenic.
Noisebridge had this e waste problem for a while until they made a dedicated spot for e
waste which gets regularly emptied —I don’t know by whom.
Presently we have about 5-8 cubic meters of stuff that piled up and should be removed…

I'm not in agreement that sudoroom's interaction with e-waste equals cancer,
but I'm very sorry that you're having to deal with a skin tumor, i'm sure
that's very stressful.
As for the e-waste at sudoroom, I'm planning to do an e-waste run after a
session of sorting with another sudoer, within the next two weeks.
I did recently help fix and sell the fridge and earned sudoroom $210 while
clearing up some space. I have also been putting hours of work into sorting
ewaste and moving things along and out of the space, every tuesday night.

I'm no longer strong enough to keep cleaning up, and some of the e-waste
that shows up is genuinely dangerous, like a UV laser that appears to have
given me vascular tumors.
Appear benign, but, punching a hole in my genome has really kicked my
survival instinct into high gear and I don't want anything to do with
e-waste anymore.
Holy shit, I'm so sorry. That is awful and I don't blame you for stepping
back after something like that.
Where is all this stuff coming from?
