World Day Without Wi-Fi

The transmission of information via the Internet via radio channels is carried out using various wireless communication standards. Nokia and Aironete are considered to be the pioneers of Wi-Fi with the 802.11a protocol, which appeared in 1996. Today, data transmission uses standards that differ in speed, coverage range and other parameters. The use of wireless communications, unlike cable connections, is fraught with danger to human health and nature. Members of the International Federation of Environmental Defenders, registered in Venezuela, drew attention to this. This organization declared November 8 as World No Wi-Fi Day in 2016. Any type of learning, including that which is broadcast by a router, has an impact on a person. Wi-Fi decimeter waves resonate with the body, causing high-frequency vibrations that destroy DNA. In recent years, the number of devices that use wireless networks has increased. In addition to routers, smartphones and computers, TVs and set-top boxes are connected to Wi-Fi. Their simultaneous use increases the power of radio emission, harming the health of humans and pets. World Day Without Wi-Fi promises public attention to the risks to living organisms associated with wireless technologies. According to the observations of doctors, radio waves who study the router cause the following negative consequences for the body: • disruption of the change in sleep phases - fast and slow, causing insomnia; • decrease in the level of antioxidant protection, which leads to changes in the functioning of internal organs (brain, liver and others); • the appearance of malignant neoplasms; • spontaneous termination of pregnancy; • decreased sperm motility, i.e. deterioration of reproductive function in men. The strength of Wi-Fi waves is incomparable to other household devices. For example, a microwave oven emits 100,000 times more radiation than a router. Radio waves from your cell phone and computer are also stronger than those from your Wi-Fi router. This is how skeptics counter in an argument with those who are concerned about the negative effects of wireless communications on the body. However, most home appliances are not kept on 24 hours a day. For example, a microwave oven is usually used for a few minutes a day to heat food. The peak power of a smartphone is observed only during a conversation. In standby mode, the phone emits negligible radiation. Therefore, the low power of the router is compensated by its round-the-clock uninterrupted operation. The impact of Wi-Fi on the body should never be underestimated. How to reduce the influence of outbred connections? Experts recommend buying a low-power router for an apartment or small house where data transmission over long distances is not required, as in an office. Radiation has the greatest effect on children, who have thinner skulls than adults. Therefore, there is no need to install the router in the child's bedroom. Configure the router so that it turns on only when there are active devices - a smartphone, laptop or PC. It is recommended to disconnect the device from the electrical network at night. WHO does not confirm the negative effects of wireless communications on the human body. However, people who are convinced of the dangers of electromagnetic waves insist on using a cable connection to access the Internet. World Wi-Fi Free Day draws attention to the hidden dangers of radio emissions coming from a router and the threat to human health.
