    What’s funny is that if you look up “radio sickness” there’s nothing. DDG literally returns nothing. They couch their beliefs in terms associated with modern tech. It’s not 5,000,000hz radio waves, it’s 5G Wifi!

      What they’re trying to claim is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_hypersensitivity

      I had a friend who swore she could feel it. I explained the inverse square law, she asked if she could just shiled it in a metal box and still use the wifi just a little. I told her if she wanted to prove it, have someone inplug the wifi randomly and see if she could feel it. She tried and could not, but contested that it was an actual test.

      we don’t talk much these days.

      They just have such a refined radio palate that they can tell the difference between natural background solar and cosmic radiation versus the paltry radiation from an artificial source
