    If you ever feel stupid, just remember… people like this do exist

    Faraday cages don’t work how you think they do op

    If signals can get out so can microwaves and microwaves wouldn’t even be allowed on the market

      Does that mean my microwave is defective when the music I’m listening to on my bluetooth headphones gets interrupted when I stand close to it while it’s on? Is that dangerous for me?

      Just remember that there is also beam forming in microwaves. It doesn’t have to be 100% Farady cage, 5 out of 6 sides is enough.

          It is for that, but it’s not 100% fullproof. You don’t believe me? Try it. Put your phone in a plugged off microwave, see if the wifi and network drop to 0.
