Well, I get how Wi-Fi is something fairly new as these things tend to go. However, Wi-Fi is only special in that its now used by things consumers see and actually use themselves. This is what I have serious 'cognitive dissonance' with.
We've been absolutely flooded with wireless signals across the frequency spectrum, increasingly more densely since at least the 1960's. We still are, for that matter, in ways far more powerful and in some examples, much closer to our own human frequencies than Wi-Fi is. So...Why is Wi-Fi getting picked on?
I've loosely followed this debate since it started in the media several years ago, and through more recent issues where parents blame school Wi-Fi for illness or bad impacts on specific kids. One recent case even suggest a true and legitimate (to their thinking) allergy to Wi-Fi signal.
Again... What is it about that very narrow part of the spectrum of frequencies and only what is apparently being used in just one certain way, that is so harmful....while mega-wattage across the whole spectrum is so thick now, auctioning out any remaining space for rights makes Real Estate look penny ante for dollars involved?
Just a curious Rabbit...and, I'm really curious about your own take on it. Not what everyone else on the net thinks, so much as why you think Wi-Fi is special as a concern?
