Former Microsoft Canada President: Wifi in Schools is a Potential Health Hazard (techvibes.com)

There are very real problems with buildings that cause health problems in people: mould, especially in poorly maintained air handling systems, vapours from paint or new furniture - and they are often hard to track down.

And now this fellow comes and wants to blame everything on wireless internet. Words fail me.


Yea, like the asbestos lined "portable classrooms" they packed Canadians into for almost 50 years.


This is ridiculous.

How on earth did he land a Job as president of Microsoft?

Or is this just some ploy to prop up his future public speaking career?


Apparently knowledge of basic physics isn't a prerequisite for being president of a major corporation. Who knew?


Why is this posted here?

Is it interesting because it's a former Microsoft exec?

Is it interesting because people don't know that this claim is false?

Is it interesting for some other reason?


Lol so much hate. I wish the article could provide the points that he was making.


"Some of these kids have a doctor's note to prove it."

Hilarious!
