The fact is that sadly this technology hasn’t been used in the US for long enough to see the longterm health effects. (Cancers can take much more than 10 years to develop in some cases). If you research throughly, you’ll find some puzzling facts, such as the fact that the technology companies USUALLY are the ones responsible for conducting/contracting their own testing for safety from radiation. Of course their own testing shows computers and wireless technology safe. And the organizations responsible for overseeing such standards are too closely affiliated to the industry. It’s a deep problem, but there’s an easy solution:

Seek out the real information, and make your own informed decisions on these matters. We can’t afford to blindly experiment on our children just because no one is conclusively proving wireless technology isn’t safe. Yet. The real question should be, has it been proven safe?

p.s.
in any human being, cancerous cells attack several times, in a lifetime, which are destroyed by our body’s immune system.

I’m not talking about screen radiation here, but the fact that there are concerns about Wi-fi (and cellphones) backed up by some research already tells you it’s not all that good.

In an interview in 2004, Sir William Stewart said he was even more concerned, mentioning four new studies that worried him – including the Naila Study in Germany, where doctors found a trebling of cancers after five years in patients who lived within 400m from mobile phone masts (radiation levels similar to those of a Wi-Fi network).

More recently, the Bioinitiative Report (2007) – published by an international working group of distinguished scientists, researchers and public health policy professionals – reviewed over 2000 studies. Their final report raised serious concerns about the existing public
exposure limits, and documented brain tumour risks and other health risks from exposure to wireless technologies.

Who else is concerned?
Several schools in England and France have dismantled their Wi-Fi systems after concern from teachers and parents.
In late 2007, the French National Library removed all Wi-Fi systems in Paris due to health complaints from staff.
In 2005, the Austrian Medical Association published a recommendation to use cables instead of Wi-Fi. The Salzburg Government, the Frankfurt Local Education Authority and the German Teachers Union have also banned or advised against the use of Wi-Fi in schools.
In mid-2007, the European Environment Agency released a statement advising precaution regarding exposure to Wi-Fi networks until more is known through science.
In September 2007, the German Government issued a warning to citizens to avoid using Wi-Fi in the workplace or at home, suggesting cabled connections instead.
In September 2007, following the Bioinitiative Report, Europe’s top environmental watchdog, the European Environmental Agency, called for immediate action to reduce exposure to radiation from Wi-Fi, mobile phones and their masts. It suggested that delay could lead to
a health crisis similar to those caused by asbestos, smoking and lead in petrol.
