[ RadSafe ] Smart meters

[Doug Huffman]

I have done my duty and looked at that page.  First I saw the garish
typography (chartjunk to Tufte), then I saw "electrohypersensitivity EHS".

I have advised my local electrical cooperative (2100 meters) on the
technology, though their intention is to use BPL technology, Broadband
By Powerline.  For rate reduction and load leveling it will be great.
The potential for abuse of privacy (US-centric Fourth and Fifth
Amendments) is significant.
