Yes, my 45 years work in Electrical Engineering tells me you're wrong.
. . . . but wait, you've found a website that says you're right . . . . then obviously all these other sources are wrong -
Sci-Tech Encyclopedia: Ohm's law - The direct current flowing in an electrical circuit is directly proportional to the voltage applied to the circuit. The constant of proportionality R, called the electrical resistance, is given by the equation below,
Britannica Concise Encyclopedia: Ohm's law - Relationship between the potential difference (voltage), electric current, and resistance in an electric circuit.
Columbia Encyclopedia: Ohm's law - law stating that the electric current i flowing through a given resistance r is equal to the applied voltage v divided by the resistance, or i=v/r.
Veterinary Dictionary: Ohm's law - The electric current flowing through a conductor is equal to the voltage divided by the resistance.
Electronics Dictionary: Ohm's law - Relationship between voltage, current and resistance.
Wikipedia: Ohm's law - Ohm's law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the potential difference or voltage across the two points, and inversely proportional to the resistance between them.
Thanks to the Internet, you have be careful to find the real truth out there.
Feel free to raise the issue with David - he's also an Electrical Engineer.
