Are you saying that the same frequency that cooks food by exciting it's molecules, is the same frequency as a 5g transmitter? Maybe I am not understanding but I wouldn't want to be standing anywhere near unshielded microwave oven while it's in operation. Oh never mind you said wifi, sorry Edited February 28, 2020 by WanderingFool0 correction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The difference being that the fear of smoke harming you is based on decades of extensively corroborated, peer-reviewed scientific research. The fear of 5G harming you is based on what some people on YouTube said so they'd make more money. You are right, but how many smokers had to begin to develop cancer to provide the data for all of those studies? The majority of people haven't been exposed to 5g yet for decades. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I actually not so sure i am now. I guess in decades we will know either way though. Of course if it does have long term impact, it will be too late for many, just like the lifelong smokers and those exposed to asbestos for decades, before the catastrophic effects appeared in them.
