Tablet without wifi

  • I understand you don't agree with my decision to reduce EMF exposure but there really is no need to be rude, is there? Are you that intolerant when it comes to religion, race and peoples' sexual practices too?

    I could give you links to scientific research to support my claims but I realise it's pointless - you'd just give me more links proving otherwise and besides, I'm long past trying to explain my actions to strangers.

    Im a scientist at heart . And as far as im aware, there are no credible double blind studies that indicate that home wifi strength signals impede health in any way ..

    If you have such links then please do present them

    I welcome having my understandings challenged :)

    It is impossible to prove a negative - and I am genuinely intrigued as to how you reached the decision that you did ..

    I see EMF Hypersensitivity as a psychological condition, akin to OCD. Now you wouldn't be mocking someone for having clinical OCD, would you?

    The physiological symptoms can be real, even if the root cause is idiopathic.

    (Previously a real, proper scientist, with actual scientist qualifications)

    To the OP - this is how it would look plugging ethernet into a tablet : http://plugable.com/2015/01/22/new-plugable-usb-fast-ethernet-adapter-brings-wired-ethernet-directly-to-your-tablets-microusb-port

    Personally, i could see this being useful when visiting hotels that lack a wifi network but have free ethernet internet
  • Does a computer not emit dangerous rays?

    How do you walk down a high street with every coffee shop spouting out wifi poison?

    Have you watched Better call Saul?

    Tinfoil hats have actually been shown to amplify 2.6Ghz and 1.2-1.4Ghz frequencies.

    Any electronic device is going to produce a detectable EMF just by operating. Tablet processors typically run at 1.6GHz up and PCs even higher - certainly at 2.4GHz and beyond.

    So basically the OP's concerns are nonsense? As expected, other than the secret research papers that she has, that she does not want to share?
