Controversies and legal

Controversy

Some rural residents had some concerns regarding health risks associated with wireless communications signals. There have been many studies conducted to prove that there are no great risks associated with wireless communications.

The World Health Organization investigated this issue due to persistent public misconceptions about it. They released a report on Electromagnetic fields and public health and their effects on health. Their conclusive findings showed that signal from wireless towers did no harm to health and the common radio signal was 5 times stronger.
