An investigation into the possible dangers of Wi-Fi technology by the BBC documentary programme Panorama has been rejected as “grossly unscientific” and a “scare story” by leading scientists. The programme will claim that the radiation given off by a Wi-Fi laptop is “three times higher than the … signal strength of a typical phone mast”. But the experiment carried out by the programme did not take into account a “basic” scientific concept and presented a bogus comparison, critics say.http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/story/0,,2084217,00.html
