Forums - General - Group claim wifi allergy; wants it banned from public buildings

A group in Santa Fe (New Mexico, USA) says the city is discriminating against them because they say that they're allergic to the wireless Internet signal. And now they want Wi-Fi banned from public buildings.

Arthur Firstenberg says he is highly sensitive to certain types of electric fields, including wireless Internet and cell phones.

"I get chest pain and it doesn't go away right away," he said.

Firstenberg and dozens of other electro-sensitive people in Santa Fe claim that putting up Wi-Fi in public places is a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Eh, i'm still trying to understand why it's stealing when you have a home made sattelite dish that descrambles sattelite cable waves directly into your backyard without your permission. Aside from the fact that they're too lazy to have a buisness model that makes sense and needs laws that don't make sense to bail them out.

As for this. They have flowers in public buildings when people have flower allergies. Can't see this winning.



wtf ......this is stupid people these days sheesh . Every where he walks someone will have a cell phone out talking now days.
