bubblykiss Posted April 30, 2015 #2 Share Posted April 30, 2015 So tattoos can protect us from apple's radiation? Seems like a good enough reason to finish tattooing my entire body. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquatus1 Posted April 30, 2015 #3 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Are wrist tattoos so common that this is an issue? I have difficulty reconciling my image of such tattoo wearer's with people who would use iWatches. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have difficulty reconciling my image of such tattoo wearer's with people who would use iWatches. The tattoo has been embraced by 'hipsters' and they are the ones now a days who would be most likely to have an iWatch .

Zalmoxis Posted May 1, 2015 #12 Share Posted May 1, 2015 It's the potassium iodide that some tattoo artists use (a type of blue ink). These watches work on a wireless connection that involves radio-waves and micro-waves, potassium iodide is a prime substance to treat radiation poisoning. So, put the two together and the tattoo ink cancels out the microwaves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
