Why exactly does wifi not cause cancer / be really unhealthy for you?
NOTE: This is for my mother as she is really really worried about this especially with Routers and Phones
In: Technology
The wavelength of the WiFi signal is too big to disrupt dna in your cells. Its radiation (any energy being radiated is radiation) but it’s non ionizing.
Gama rays and x rays are small enough to actually damage the dna in your cells and that causes cancer.
Power level also has an effect. Your router is only putting out a few miliwatts where your microwave oven that uses the same frequency band puts out 800-1200 watts
