It's rather worrisome that it's so difficult to tell the difference in 2021. I'd 100% believe you if you said that this was some conspiracy theorist looking for more ways to peddle their EMI/EMF scare stories.
With that said, I suspect this was a misinterpretation of the Apple KB [0]. From the KB:
> Magnetic interference and medical devices
> Under certain conditions, magnets and electromagnetic fields might interfere with medical devices.
I suspect the author made an accidental leap from "interference caused by an electromagnetic field" to EMI.

- orev 5y agoI can possibly see this as a misunderstanding of the Apple KB from a lay-person who happens to be reading it, but it’s unacceptable from someone who is publishing an article about it, especially on a site seemingly dedicated to electronics. The more I think about it, the more this seems like some kind of content stuffing for spam, SEO, or maybe some other nefarious purpose.
- haswell 5y agoI did find it interesting that the author has a significant number of posts on the site but only 3 followers. That might say more about the site’s community than the author, but something does seem odd/off.
