This is a bit troubling, my boss is one of the inventors of WiFi.

Hedy's name isn't in the list. Though inventing frequency hopping is an impressive accomplishment and very useful, there were many previous technologies that needed to be in place for WiFi to exist.

Am I the only one who feels this is a dishonest representation of Hedy Lamarr, and takes away from those who actually invented the technology that billions of people use every day?

The only paragraph which mentions her invention is "It was Hedy's idea for a secret communications system - specifically one that could guide a torpedo using a technology called "frequency hopping" - so that signal couldn't be intercepted."
