Guest guest Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 Sun Dec 14, 2008 12:14 pm (PST) Two days ago on CNN news they showed a list of Obama's top 3 plans to bring the economy back up. The 3rd one was to get Broadband internet on the power lines. This is something that W. Bush was pushing hard during his 1st term and then the issue seemed to go away. When broadband is run on the power lines it is an unshielded signal. As I understand it the signal comes into your home on the power line and turns every electrical outlet into a internet link up. The wiring in your home all carries the signal and turns your home into an antenna. It will be a nightmare for all that are sensitive individuals. The articles I read at that time said that even if your own home didn't have the signal that if anyone within 2 blocks of your home did, the sensitive would still have reactions to it. If you read anything more in the news about this, I hope you will share it with the group so we can do what we can to stop this nightmare before it starts. In the early Bush years, I read an article about a town in Japan that tested broadband over power lines and it was a health nightmare. I can't find that article now. Anyway, heads up on this subject coming back into the news. Let's try to keep on top of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
