Apparently the sun outputs radio waves in the THz-range, sub millimeter waves, so i dont think that this is anything to worry about. Also the strength of the radio waves comming from our devices is really weak, not at all in the suns level.
- Viker 8y agoYeh but you see. The sun has existed for billions of years and we as humans have yet to adapt to it fully. There is a reason why we live in the shade and use sunscreen. Excuse me if I still feel skeptical about mmWaves..
- adsfqwop 8y agoLight is 400,000 GHz to 800,000 GHz and has always existed on this earth. Man-made pulsed microwaves are 300 MHz to 600 GHz, and have never existed on this planet before. Both from a physics standpoint, as well as from a biological standpoint, they are not the same thing. Both are biologically active, but for one of them we have adapted (Vitamin D production and photosynthesis, for example), for the other we have not. From another perspective; the FCC limit for for microwave radiation is 10^18 times higher than natural background. That's a difference of a quintillion times. Backround levels (green), compared to current exposure: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Dt2NMoJU4AE2oYY.jpg https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Dt2NMoJU4AE2oYY.jpg Therefore you can't really compare visible light exposure with microwave exposure. One has existed on the planet for billions of years, the other is completely artificial and man-made, and unlike visible light it penetrates tissues through the whole body, and there is no adaptation. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanplh/article/PIIS2542-5196(18)30221-3/fulltext https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanplh/article/PIIS2542-5...
