    This thread might be the worst example of “I didn’t read the article, but I’ll comment anyway” that I’ve seen.

      Why isn’t it everywhere?

      because it sounds scary even though it actually isn’t, and people don’t want to read the science, they want to read one headline and give a reactionary uninformed response.

      the comments are exactly the same echoes as, “omg mobile phones use microwaves? those things that cook food? omg they must be cooking my brain, GIVING ME CANCER 😱😱😱”
