    The 5G cancer paranoia isn’t even based on any specific frequency that they think is causing cancer, because they think 5G itself is a frequency. They’re just opposed to anything new and so they search for arguments that justify their feelings. I guarantee this whole thing will pop up again when we get around to 6G, even if the frequencies are all exactly the same as 5G. It’s just the way idiots are

      I never thought of it that way, how people really have no understanding of RF. Thank you for the new perspective, hopefully I can use that info to talk people off the ledge.
