She's making a mistake

She's making a mistake by not suing for $1.7 Trillion. If you're going to sound completely crazy anyway, you might as well go all in.

We laugh now, but 50-100 years from now they find wifi is harmful!

Even if she gets some money she isn't gonna get anywhere near a billion. Be lucky if she gets a million.

And if we're gonna go that far, why not implicate the entire broadcast industry-- TV, radio, satellite-- for pumping all those frequencies through our bodies without our prior consent.... not to mention GPS raining down upon us from on high. Why not sue for the damage Loran might have caused (before it was decommissioned), while we're also suing cellular device manufactuers for cooking our brain cells and the cell carriers for being complicit.

<ridiculous> And if we're going to go that far, let's be really silly and sue God for all the electromagnetic radiation from the sun and x-rays from the cosmos that sneak past the earth's protective magnetic field. While we're at it, add Mother Nature as a defendant for the naturally occurring sources on the ground. </ridiculous>

And let's not forget to sue the airlines for all that additional radiation we're exposed to when their planes are flying at 30,000 feet, where the thinner atmosphere can't attenuate solar radiation as effectively as closer to the ground.

Occasionally I've wondered if broadcast TV and radio signals cause damage to the cells in our body, given that they're emitted at anwhere from thousands to hundreds of thousands of watts. But you'd think if that was they case that someone would have put the pieces of that puzzle together by now.

Maybe. But what if, against all odds, we find that WiFi was actually beneficial to our health.

That is also an option
If this was the case, would she have to return the money she would win from a suite?

If we could just get every fool + dog from stomping all over the WiFi spectrum I'm in favor of this lawsuit no matter how crazy it is. I'd hate to live near these messes.

I think all of us on here would probably be dead by then so unfortunately we may never know.

Hell if they let this get into a courtroom anywhere then I am suing Comcast because they have been a pain in my ass forever by raising my bill causing me emotional distress.

In that case, we can just sue her for $1.7B for making us turn off our wifi and therefore harming our health.

You likely won't get very far with either of those lawsuits. It's been tried before. They were dismissed because God couldn't be served the required legal papers. I'm presuming Mother Nature would fall under the same category.

Besides, if you believe God is all knowing and all powerful, do you really think you have much of a chance against him in court? And if you don't believe God is all knowing and all powerful, then how are you going to put the blame on him to begin with?

There would be no doubt that the WiFi companies would sue the public to receive their owed compensation for helping everyone to live longer!

Those WiFi signals that hit us are altering our DNA ever so slowly, thus helping us along in the evolutionary path to becoming able to communicate with one another telepathically.

Hence the reason I put the <ridiculous> tags around it... as in, mocking the woman suing over low power wi-fi parking meters.

Or said a different way, if people are going to sue over every stupid, convoluted reason their imaginations can twist out, why stop at wi-fi. Let's sue the weather bureau for not preventing lightning, or sue the creator of the universe for making such a harsh and dangerous place.... black holes, dark matter, intense radiation, stars burning at temperatures considered unsafe. Next thing you know, OSHA will try to regulate the cosmos.

One technical note the quantity of radiation you get from broadcast TV, radio..etc falls off by a factor of 4 for each doubling of distance.

The radiation you get by holding a cell *transmitter* on or close to your skin dwarfs the energy from the largest of broadcast TV towers even if located nearby.

As an example of the same concept.. our moon exerts twice the gravitational influence on the earth as does the sun even though the moon is 27 million times less massive than the sun. Sun is only about 400 times the earth moon distance.
