The most severe restrictions to the general public are imposed within a 20-mile (32 km) radius of the Green Bank Observatory.[5] The Observatory polices the area actively for devices emitting excessive electromagnetic radiation such as microwave ovens, Wi-Fi access points and faulty electrical equipment and request citizens discontinue their usage. It does not have enforcement power[6] (although the FCC can impose a fine of $50 on violators[7]), but will work with residents to find solutions.

I have met people who claimed to be "allergic" to Wi-Fi. They've found suggestions (perhaps ironically online) that they should move to this area, avoiding exposure to their proclaimed allergen.

People are crazy. I've met people who are convinced that 5Ghz keeps them from sleeping.
