MAKE WI-FI IN DEVICES OPTIONAL INCLUDING CARS. There are many devices that have WiFi built into them that you cannot turn off. Most TVs for example. My hard wired Direct TV receiver had a transponder which sent signals to the cell tower half a mile away, but only at certain times. At these times I would feel very dizzy within a few feet of it and a RF meter was able to track down the source. It could not be removed or turned off so I got rid of it. The Bluetooth in my TV also made me dizzy but at least back in 2017 mine could be turned off. Cars used to function fine before WI-FI. It's not essential and being forced into becoming dizzy while driving is just stupid and unfair. There should at least be some cars you can buy where it's optional.
