Wi-Fi Allergy a PR Stunt

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the hope-he-made-his-buck dept.

ADiamond writes "There is no Wi-Fi allergy. The English DJ claiming a Wi-Fi sensitivity, chronicled earlier, was a PR stunt to promote his new album. It would appear that the stunt was highly successful, appearing in multiple high-profile media outlets like The Sun, The Telegraph, and Fox News. The article at Ars goes on to discuss the evidence, or lack-thereof, of electromagnetic spectrum sensitivity."

    I think everyone here knew very well that the was no such thing as a "WiFi Allergy". That it doesn't exist doesn't mean that the claim was a PR stunt though. He could just be a gullible hypochondriac.
