The Muni Wi-Fi Fear Factor

Broadband Reports' Karl Bode today picks up on a Daily Herald story reporting that the Healthy Home Alliance is fighting against a planned citywide Wi-Fi installation by MetroFi in Naperville, Illinois.

"To me, radiation is radiation," says the Healthy Home Alliance's Sue Storm, also known as The Angel Lady. "There is enough evidence that this is dangerous and hazardous to our health if people know where to look for it."

"It would interesting to know if these homeowners have cordless phones and baby monitors in their home or whether they avoid those as well," Bode points out. "We stick by our suggestion that concerned parents should force their children to wear mobile Faraday cages, while the rest of us soak up the MIMO 802.11n goodness."

And as the Daily Herald's Jake Griffinlinks notes:

Some of the evidence Storm provided the city proved untrue. The "alert" she sent the city included a portion that read, "In a town in Sweden, there were so many hospital calls when the WiMax system was activated that the entire country has since eliminated all Wi-Fi systems."

"That's totally false," said Magnus Harviden, the science counselor at the Swedish embassy in Washington, D.C. "In fact, there is a big project to expand WiMax. We've never had a debate about Wi-Fi."
