The Group residents of the American city Santa-Fe in the state of New Mexico states that the electromagnetic waves emitted from wireless network, cause allergies, reports KOB.com. Dissatisfied residents demanded to prohibit the use of Wi-Fi in public places, claiming the discrimination from the city authorities.
One of the claimants stated that he is especially sensitive to certain types of electromagnetic fields, such as those formed by Wi-Fi devices and mobile phones. According to him, they cause a long-term pain in his chest.
He also states that the use of Wi-Fi in public places is a violation of the Law on Protection of the Rights of disabled citizens of the United States. The prosecutor of Santa Fe is engaged in identifying how lawful the claims of allergic men are.
At the same time, according to the representative of the city administration, Santa Fe must go with the times and no ban on Wi-Fi seems really possible from this point of view.
