Watch that computer. It could be bad for your health. Remember when complaints were rife about WiFi signals damaging your brain? This charge was also aimed at mobile phones. Signals from towers were so small as to be hardly measurable. Radio and television transmissions are stronger. Home WiFi and computers generally are extremely low.
You are more likely to suffer from repetitive strain injury from using a computer than brain damage. Repetitive strain is becoming a major problem in all industries because computer use is so widespread. The upper-limb and neck are the danger areas. Even now though, many "experts" say the "illness" is imagined.
The "artists" can be identified because they try to get time off for aching wrists. Furthermore, it is difficult to prove that the injury was caused at work. People do many odd things away from work. Like factory jobs where the same movements are repeated, data processors are likely to suffer from RSI. In the 1980s half of Telstra telephonists claimed they had RSI. Oddly, today very few suffer from this. Over time, the number of people off sick with this complaint has fallen despite computer use becoming more widespread.
