We were interested to read about a small, but perfectly formed group of people in Santa Fe claiming that Wi-Fi is the new root of human ill. Apparently, they have convinced themselves that radio signals emitting from cellphone and Wi-Fi hotspots irritates over sensitive wee souls that are inflicted with "electromagnetic allergies."
One of the group is suing his neighbor for refusing to turn off their cellphone and Wi-Fi hotspot and has been forced to live in his car to escape his self-diagnosed infliction. Unfortunately he "cannot stay in a hotel, because hotels and motels all employ Wi-Fi connections, which trigger a severe illness."
Is this small group in Santa Fe isolated in their imagined beliefs? Apparently not. A brief internet search has revealed that there are thousands of people worldwide who believe that their bodies are being afflicted by the electromagnetic radiation put out by computers, wireless data networks, cell phone networks, radio and television broadcasting, power lines, and virtually anything that uses electricity
We will be keeping a watching brief on this phenomenon and thinking about how we will be able to appease these luddites if they are looking for suitable motel accommodation. I guess we could start by offering to turn off our wireless internet during their stay, however we may have to invest in cladding designated guest rooms with metal screens to shield inflicted guests from magnetic radiation.
