- Any activity that involves prolonged periods of repeated motion should carry warnings if doctors want to be consistent. Warnings about RSI already come bundled with many keyboards, and mice and non-vibrating controllers should follow suit if warnings are the way legislators want to go. However, I question how much benefit warnings will have since many people using keyboards, mice, and game controllers probably already understand that there are certain health risks when they are used for long periods of time. ... Nonetheless, I believe warnings can help if, rather than just being told that there are health risks associated with certain devices, people are informed about how serious and debilitating RSI can truly be, taught how to notice early warning symptoms, and instructed to limit risks by taking breaks or assuming better posture.
