said by kontos:said by Woody79_00:The fact is...until we get atleast 50 solid years of study on this subject (we get 50 years worth of Wifi Exposure to people within 20 feet of the transmitter) we will not now what the longterm effects are.
So what you are saying is that in your world we should have just started to see new things like Color Television released to the general public in the past few years.
It will be nice when delivery of those signals via cable is determined to be safe. Maybe we can get DOCSIS 1 in 30-40 years too. I may still be alive then.
No I am not saying that at all. You completely misunderstand what I mean.
I am not saying not to release it, I am saying that if after a few years of testing (Like a beta period where you trial something internally for a year or two among a small group) if the technology is good release it. However AFTER RELEASING IT studies and observations should be done to determine any long-term effects it may have(in this case wireless signals on environment)
nothing is going to be perfect, it never is. However, if we introduce something that we later find out is destroying the ecosystem or causing adverse medical effects then it should obviously be pulled if it is scientifically proven to have bad effects. Furthermore, this type of study can be used to bolster the positives of good technologies.
Lets just hypothetically say 10% of the earths population is sensitive to wifi signals and it does indeed make them sick and cause adverse medical problems. Is it fair to force those people to suffer with no recourse? that they can't even sit in their own living room and get away from it because their neighbor is broadcasting it? I am just saying....That would liken to people being allergic to nuts, and forcing them to eat nuts because the other 98% of the population is not allergic to nuts...again i am just saying.
Just so you know, the World Health Organization is studying what exactly is causing Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity in humans. It is not common, but the symptoms in people are real and have been medically documented. It could be that these signals are causing the symptoms of other conditions to become more apparent. they are not sure, as i said its being studied.
