The problem with these stories regarding health risks from tech is that we WANT them to not be true. I read it and say "bah" but in the back of my head it really does worry me.
The problem is elimination of cell phones & wifi would be such an inconvenience in our lifestyles... I mean I rely on both so extensively that even simply cutting back on cell phone use be a huge problem. Heck I work in a building with no less than 17 different wifi networks.
Even if the research is inconvenient on an individual or institutional level I just hope there is more done and more public interest so that at least engineers will focus a little more on developing lifestyle tech that is safer. I mean don't we have enough risks from various environmental pollution already? Wouldn't it make sense to put pressure on changing the things that can be changed? Even if its paranoid would it kill people to care about it a bit more?
