I thought this would be about the fire safety concerns some people have.

As for the radiation and updating signal…. how are you posting this? Is it on a desk top computer with a wired internet connection?

Yes, they are completely safe....

As long as you wear your tin foil hat while driving 🚗 😜

I hope you wrote this post down and mailed it to someone to post on your behalf. If not I’m afraid I have some bad news for you…

All new technology is frightening to some people, I remember my MIL refusing to be in a house when a microwave was being used because it might give her cancer. And people not wanting to have pylons near their houses because in case they got brain tumours. You used to be able to get covers for mobile phones to protect your body and brain from dangerous radiation (I think they also possibly stopped your phone getting a signal which was a bit of an issue). All of those things are non-issues now.

Electric cars are fine.

If you want to worry about something, worry about vaping. I can't believe people are just sucking who-knows-what into their lungs with no idea what the long-term effects might be.
