Group of people "allergic" to Wi-Fi in my town...
Apparently, a group of people have sprung up in my town who are "allergic" to Wi-Fi signals. We are blanketed by all kinds of radio waves and wireless communication daily.... what makes Wi-Fi different? Because it uses TCP\IP? I have read and agree that it's probably just a phobia.
Someone commented:
"There was a spate of WiFi allergics in the UK a year or two back. I believe a council or tv show took a bunch of these allergics and did some testing on them.
None of the allergics was able to discriminate between rooms/houses filled with high powered WiFi signals and those without. I seem to remember they were given as much time as they needed."
I agree that there needs to be some double blind testing with these people.
