When you spend your day scouring the Internet (and Sunbelt labs) for news about computer security topics you cover a lot of territory. Once in a while you just have a weird day. You run into a lot of strange stuff. Today is one of those days.
Yahoo�s tech blog is carrying a story about a man in Santa Fe, New Mexico, who is suing because he has �electromagnetic sensitivity� and can�t live in his own home because of the radiation from his neighbor�s wi-fi network.
He says in his suit that her cell phone, fluorescent lights and dimmer switches also cause "life-threatening reactions, which include heart arrhythmia."
I hope nobody tells him that people use Wi-fii to log onto to the Internet and everybody knows that�s full of viruses and bots. And there�s no frost in Santa Fe to kill the bots either.
And don�t get me started about the deadly flux fields from those refrigerator magnets.
�Wi-fi �sensitivity� draws lawsuit from next-door neighbor�
Update:
Whoa boy! There some history there. Plaintiff Arthur Firstenberg has been at this for a while.
