Panorama - Wifi ate my hamster

typical scaremongering.

I hope they say there's no proof of any side effects even evidence for phone use and radio masts are very mixed and misleading.
 
And besides:

WiFi: 100mW. And you're not exactly sticking it to your head.

GSM Mobile: 2W. And you put it on you're ear.

Neither are likely to be harmful.
 
Better get a tinfoil hat for the kids then. :rolleyes:


Hey kids are enjoying something at school better ban it.
 
Another piece of excellent investogative journalism by the BBC. Glad to see the license fee spent wisely. :rolleyes:
 
Hmmm interesting, I work for an ISP and had a woman before that said our wireless router killed her goldfish and wilted her favourite pogonia.
 
Probably based on research funded by Belkin who are sick of losing all those patchlead sales :D
 
It's the ongoing saga of find something to make a scare story out of, first it was powerlines then mobiles and now WiFi. I don't think there is anything left that someone hasn't decided is bad for you apparently even simple things like breathing and getting out of bed could have potentially harmful side effects and will soon carry a government health warning which will be closely followed by a ban in public places!
 
The people that think wireless networks are bad for your health are the kind of people that think the government controls your brainwaves through pylons. :p Paranoid nutjobs tbh.
 
Surely the radio waves and TV signals are a damn sight more powerful yet there is never any fuss about them.

I'm suprised Jack Thompson hasn't called for them to be banned.
 
Aren't bumble bees being eradicated due to mobile phones? Messes up their pathfinding abilities apparently :( Explains why you see more and more of them on a plant or on the ground looking totally confused.
 
There was a nice experiment done on TV a few years back where the planted a mobile phone mast in the garden and had a few people to live in the house next to it.
They told them that the mast would be switched on for three days and then switched off for three days, and that they would be monitored for any side affects.
What they actually did was the opposite, so when they thought it was turned on it was actually off. One or two people complained off being ill and blamed it on the phone mast, however as we know it was turned off and not the cause of their cold.
 
This is just typical scaremongering.

It annoys the hell out of me that some busybody has got bored or fed up creating horror stories about mobile phones and now turns their sights on wifi.

Who wants to bet its been started by technology fearing christians.

Thing is, after this is shown, i'm gonna get a load of phone calls asking if I run wifi at the school I work in.
