Ontario school board refuses to turn off wi-fi networks
85 replies, posted
Half my school is covered with WiFi.
I regularly use my cell phone as a WiFi hotspot.
I have a WiFi router under a meter away from both where I sit when I'm on my computer, and where I sleep.
I'm also fat (which affects your immune system in a negative way)
I haven't been sick for like 2 years. Not even the common cold.
And I'm saying 2 years because I can't remember past that.

In high doses, radio waves WILL cause cancer and do all sorts of other things.
But not fucking wi-fi network levels.
The Vatican had to pump ungodly amounts of power through a massive radio tower to give kids cancer. A wi-fi network doesn't even remotely have the juice.[/QUOTE]
Woah what? The Vatican?

I'm sure they're all running with the default passwords as well
I especially like the "default" one, using no encryption
This is why I love Ontario
Time for a science lesson for uneducated parents!
The energy of a wave is directly proportional to it's frequency. High levels of energy break chemical bonds, which is how UV light gives you skin cancer. So let's see what the frequency of wifi is...
The frequency of wifi is roughly 2.4ghz, or 2.4x10^9 hz. So, let's see where that is on the chart of frequencies...

Huh, fancy that. Wifi frequencies are less energetic than the fucking visible light that ENTERS YOUR EYEBALLS.

:science: Science is awesome.
The problem here is that while everyone is correct WiFi can't cause the problems those students are experiencing what is causing it?
There are pictures and video on-line showing typical computer use areas that demonstrate what the problem is. Students are shown crowded together using laptops while sitting in each other's peripheral vision without Cubicle Level Protection. That's a problem called Subliminal Distraction exposure.
Discovered forty years ago when it caused mental breaks for knowledge workers using the first prototypes of modern close-spaced workstations, the cubicle was designed to deal with the vision startle reflex to stop it there by 1968.
The full cubicle is not necessary but there should be a privacy shield on both sides of a student using a computer in a crowded area.
Although the problem arises from normal features in our physiology of sight it is so bizarre that no one believes it the first time they hear it.
The school district ignorantly thought they could just give out the computers without any precautions.
VisionAndPsychosis.Net is a seven year investigation of Subliminal Distraction. There are longer explanations and an EMR page with these pictures as the first link on the Home page.
Exposure happens with repeated failed subliminal attempts to trigger the vision startle reflex.
I began the site when my wife had a psychotic break thirty days after the University of Alabama changed her office eliminating Cubicle Level Protection.
These students don't have enough exposure to cause the full mental break. But if one of them created the "special circumstances" for exposure at home where they played video games the extra exposure might cause it.
Episodes remit quickly with no after effects once exposure is identified and removed. The risk arises if someone acts out the delusions of the mental break this phenomenon can cause.
Certainly confused wandering outside in a Canadian winter would lead to hypothermia before anyone realized the student was missing.
Visit my site and the Joe Morse page. He vanished from Georgia Tech the last day of school 2003. Persistence of the Tech police department found him four years later as an unidentified suicide in Miami Florida. He died the day after he vanished from Georgia Tech. His roommate supplied diagrams of their computer locations in the dorm room. Morse was a Subliminal Distraction victim.
After seven years researching I can tell you it will cause fear, paranoia, panic attacks, depression, thoughts of suicide, strange skin sensations, memory loss, and psychosomatic medical symptoms.
VisionAndPsychosis.Net
That sounds just as BS as wi-fi causing cancer
"There is no scientific or medical evidence to show children complaining about headaches, dizziness and nausea are being made ill by the Wi-Fi in their classrooms"
The only reason these things are happening is because of school itself.
Fuck, my notebook detects 11 wireless devices. My brain is melting!
Well I work as a bug tester for pre-released phones for 8 hours a day of my week days. After work and at weekends I sit about 1 foot away from my wireless router while I browse/play games etc. Top that off with the broadcasting tower for 3g signals 20 feet from my house.
How long have I got Dr Facepunch?

but radio waves != radiation
if it is b/g @ 2.4ghz, then they are technically right, but it would take 30< years of 2.4ghz on your brain to fry it
This is the best laugh I've had all day.
Good on the school for telling those retards to jog on.

You have about 20 minutes according to the parents of the pupils of that school, better make them count.
lol, parents who can barely operate a garage opener
