My response to the Times


It is perhaps more relevant to compare sitting in a classroom with wifi access points(transmitters) on all day in a school with sitting in the main beam from a phone mast. We are talking of all day whole body exposure not short term exposure directed to the head as with a mobile phone. The intensity of microwave radiation impacting a child from wifi access points will be of the same order of magnitude or more as from the main beam of a nearby phone mast. Since the Stewart Report S1.42 said 'the beam of greatest RF intensity' from a macrocell base station sited within or near the grounds of a school should not be permitted to fall on any part of the school's grounds or buildings without agreement from the school and parents. Presumably this means that there should be no wifi in schools either without parents consent?

Surely there must be some ethical guidelines that are being broken here?
