A study out of Australia has potentially linked WiFi to Childhood Autism, saying that the electromagnetic radiation causes metals to become lodged in child’s brains and speeds the onset of Autism symptoms. Well, needless to say another agency (The World Health Organization) has run tests and has found no ill affects from WiFi. This release comes at a convenient time, as major networks run week long specials on Autism and Americans read about the going numbers of autism stricken kids. It breaks my heart to see autism, but when does it lead come down to simple technophobia?

Really, this is just another example of paranoia dealing with WiFi and cell phones. It seems like every week another study comes out telling us we shouldn’t use WiFi, or we shouldn’t use cell phones, because of ill affects. Really how many times can different organizations cry wolf? Little has beeen proven concerning either cell phones or WiFi. Each time another “scientific body” releases one of these reports the less I believe it. Really we can’t live without Wifi and cell phones and even if something is uncovered, will we really be able to stop? The simple answer is no.
