In January 2010, Firstenberg filed a lawsuit against his neighbor, seeking damages of $530,000,^[1] for "refusing to turn off her cell phone and other electronic devices."^[2] He claimed that because of shared wiring, electromagnetic fields from his neighbor's electronic devices were keeping him up at night and destroying his health.^[1]

At https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=%22schumann+resonance%22 there isn't much to go by. I suspect there isn't any WP:MEDRS-quality source among them. Also the link between Wever and Schumann resonances is extremely tenuous, since it appears only in WP:FRINGE/PS sources. I could find no reliable source for such claim. While Wever did write about a 10 Hz electric field (not: electromagnetic), the link with the Schumann resonances is original research. The OR claim conflates between electromagnetic and electric fields, conflates between 7.83, 14.3, 20.8, 27.3 and 33.8 Hz, on one side, and 10 Hz, on the other. So, besides being unverifiable, it is a far-fetched claim. Tgeorgescu (talk) 20:40, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
