I would love to watch this person glaze over while I explain that they both run at 2.4 ghz and are thus identical as far as radiation goes. The EM spectrum isn’t that complicated a concept, I don’t know why it’s such black magic to so many
Because they don't understand it, and fearing something is much easier to do than to take second semester physics.
It's not second semester physics, though. It's like middle school nature & science class. It's part of understanding the base foundations of our modern world.
Not to mention, we've known about and actively used electromagnetic waves since the invention of radio (if we ignore light bulbs and visible light, of course)
