is my wifi repeater giving me cancer? israelites said not to worry and that it was a conspiracy.

>>107695850
sure, why not.

Microwaves is microwaves...

Critically, the difference here is power. I wager that repeater doesn't even manage ½ a watt, where as most kitchen microwaves easily beat 750W.
Realistically, you'd need to faraday off your house to keep wifi out if you're in a ½populated area...

>>107695850
if you did wind up getting cancer, could you confidently point to any one device that you believe caused it?

Microwave oven are shielded to prevent the radiation from escaping.
>>
>>107696447
More crucially: microwaves don't cause cancer.
All they do is heat stuff up.

>Recently, a number of reports revealed that under certain conditions the irradiation by low intensity MW can substantially induce cancer progression in humans and in animal models.

True, but they still leak a lot.
Which is why they can disrupt your Bluetooth headset.
It's also why they have to use 2.4Ghz (government doesn't give a shit if you fuck up that band just don't touch the bands they use)

>>107696447
people keep making this silly classical mistake that if it's not ionizing and not high power it's safe.
it could theoretically interfere with your cells, slight deposits of energy could disrupt some type of activity that leads to cancer or other issues. doesn't have to be ionizing or insta damage for it to be bad.
I hate idiots feeling smart saying shit like "uh ackshually it's not ionizing" because they say some youtube video

>microwaves don't cause cancer.
Let me expose you to some for extended periods?

>>107696564
>and not high power it's safe.
I don't recall mentioning it is safe.
>>
>>107695850
of course it is. anything 2.4Ghz will kill you. microware oven uses 2.4Ghz and it cooks food. so guess what the 2.4Ghz devices are doing to your head.
>>
>>107695850
>is my wifi repeater giving me cancer?
probably not
more likely to cook you than give you cancer, unless it's a piece of absolute chinkshit that's leaking some very dodgy chemicals into the environment
chance of cancer from low power electronics is real real low
>but the microwaves!
your phone and headset will do a hell of a lot more damage to you than your wifi repeater, as you literally hold that in your hand or put it on your head
>>
Many have a scheduler to turn it off when you're asleep
