Watch how this Bloomberg journalist reacts to the news that a French woman has been granted disability income due in part to her electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS) condition. I find it interesting that they are even bringing attention to this controversial issue, which is affecting an increasing number of people around the world.

Why is Xfinity WiFi Harming People?
Update August 2019: The Comcast Xfinity stores in the San Francisco Bay Area offer modems with no WiFi capabilities to any customer that asks. The non-WiFi modems available are the Arris model TM822R and the Cisco model DPC3008 (which only has internet capability – no phone jack).

WiFi Backlash Trend Accelerating
Cafe owners in Sydney are realizing that “Free WiFi” comes at a cost. As The Syndey Morning Herald reports, cafes are starting to limit or ban WiFi so that people will actually have real interactions. It’s economic too – allowing one customer to purchase a $3 coffee and take up a table for five for hours on… Read More
Can We Create New Senses for Humans?
This recent TED talk by David Eagleman is mind opening – literally. He speaks to how humans and animals perceive their environment. He then shows a technology he has developed that allows deaf people to “hear” and that may allow all humans to perceive more. I tend to be skeptical of TED’s unquestioning emphasis on… Read More
Hotel Offers WiFi Kill Switch
This is certainly a positive development. . . The future of hotels is here, and there is much less WiFi.

Wireless Empire Strikes Back
This week the New York Times published an article questioning the safety of wearable wireless devices such as the new Apple Watch. I thought the tech writer, Nick Bilton, wrote a thoughtful piece that pointed out some issues with wireless technology. Namely, that we probably shouldn’t be wearing microwave radiation transmitters on our bodies all day…. Read More

Berkeley Church Cell Tower
Is nothing sacred? The St. Ambrose Catholic Church on Gilman Street in Berkeley has tentatively agreed to allow AT&T to put a new 4G cell phone tower in its steeple. Considering many residents of the community are opposed to the cell tower, this church is certainly not acting like a good neighbor. By now, most… Read More
TEDx Talk on Willful Blindness

It’s a world-wide human phenomenon that relates to nearly every public health issue we have ever faced. EMF pollution is no different.
