THERE appears to be a good deal of hoo ha brewing up in respects to the safety of wifi.

I must admit I know very little about the subject unlike the magnificent six and Dr Britton and therefore must rely on the general consensus of opinion regarding the safety of this new technology, at the same time appreciating that a reckless approach of embracing new technologies’ could be foolhardy. We must on occasions have faith in the governing bodies who oversee the decisions which govern our everyday lives.

Wifi, whatever that means, is a fact of life from the golfer with his course management device to the tribe’s man in Borneo with his iPod tracking the migratory pattern of his Sunday lunch.

I am afraid the genie is out of the bottle with millions of hand sets and thousands of satellites feeding them where would we start?
