Candy Crush on airplanes? I've seen billboards
around advertising new planes coming out with WiFi soon, and honestly that
scares me. Are people really willing to risk radio interference
just because they can't take a couple of hours break from technology? USA
Today posted an article about Wifi on planes
stating it needs more study, and I couldn't agree more.
Actor Alec Baldwin is reportedly the one that started it all after refusing to
shut down a game on his phone. The ban to keep your phone completely off during
takeoff and landing is being questioned and a proposal whether or not to allow
to keep it in “airplane mode” is being pushed into affect.
I feel like companies are jumping the gun and not
checking every technoligcal device and how it can interfere and affect flights
just to be the first few flight companies to have Wifi. And really, are flight
attendants really going to go through the trouble of checking everyone who has
their phone out? Are fliers going to allow them to do that, will they even
bother in the first place to put their phone in airplane mode?
