There is some conspiracy theories circulated regarding the "sabotaged tower" and the companies current financial state. The CEO originally posted a blurb on their main site

"I want to emphasize that the tower collapsing was NOT a result of Everus' funding or sales status; it was a deliberate act of malicious sabotage on a facility which would have otherwise enjoyed many more years of good service."

And has since been edited to say:

"I want to emphasize that the tower collapsing was a deliberate act of malicious sabotage on a facility which would have otherwise enjoyed many more years of good service."

Recently prior to the "Sabotage", there was an article in the owen sound times highlighting the companies financial difficulties. http://www.owensoundsuntimes.com/ArticleDisplay.aspx?archive=true&e=1687333

I would say that is more controversial and related closer to everus than the current blurb about wireless technology and its health affects...
