    @adrake @futurebird @oldclumsy_nowmad ah, I misread what you said about 99.7% initially. I didn't realise you were talking about the hat. So I guess I overestimated the effectiveness of the shielding and, hence, also overestimated the leakage

    I also did look up some more reputable info on max wireless tx power and was surprised to find that in some countries it can even go up to 4W (which tallies with what you said):

    Link Preview Image
    Maximum wifi transmission power per country

    favicon

    Wolph (w.wol.ph)

    Taken together, wifi and ovens seem to be roughly comparable rather than there being the orders-of-magnitude differences that I expected (with ovens emitting more radiation).

    Thanks for the correction. I guess I'll have to retire my "but microwaves leak more energy" argument when dealing with (literal) tinfoil hatters...

    @muddle @futurebird @oldclumsy_nowmad I think it's not accidental that they're comparable. Both are expected to be used by the general population with no safety training, so both should have limits that are safe under most circumstances.

    Licensed users have different rules. Amateur radio operators are licensed to transmit at up to 1500W (!) on most of the 2.4GHz band, but they take on the legal burden of ensuring that whatever they do doesn't expose others to unsafe levels of emissions.

      The "Wavestopper" costs $88 Free Shipping!

      (I checked. It is not an April Fools joke. Selling to people with "brain fog" feels a little predatory to me.)

      @futurebird
      Sounds like a scam.
      Everyone knows that the microchips in Bill Gates' Covid vaccine are distributed through the whole body.
      How else would the birdpeople from Vega know exactly the moment I take off my socks?

        @futurebird When it reads "from your brain" it means to stop the WiFi and Bluetooth emissions coming from your brain?

                      the fact somebody made a tinfoil hat look legitimately cool blows my mind.

                              There aren't any common waves that could hurt your brain.

                              BUT

                              If you want to know about something invisible, that most people don't know about that can impact your health in persistent mild but still bad ways? Look up "infrasound" --
