If our eyes could see microwaves frequencies the same way we can see visible light frequencies, then all cellphone towers would be lights brighter than the sun, all around us. That is to say, we've all been walking around in an ocean of electromagnetic frequencies for many decades.

To the extent anyone is concerned, don't worry about it because (short of escaping to live a nomadic life in Siberia or Mongolia) there is nothing you can do about it anyway. If we one day discovery that it's for some reason harmful, then ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ we're all fcuked equally.

I first noticed migraines using Galaxy Buds. Fellow Samsung users thought I was crazy. Now Apple is implementing features like ANC and pass-through sound and we're seeing more people have similar complaints and the issue is getting more attention than ever before it seems. Some users are reporting that they experience fatigue or pain in the brain after a very short amount of usage. Within that same group, some are "getting used to it" and the pain is going away. I'm not necessarily sure that's a good thing.

I'm not saying don't use the products at all. But be mindful of it's effects at all times and don't use them unnecessarily. If you're one of those types that leaves buds in your ears all day, try to take frequent breaks.
