Apple AirPods emit a form of radiation called Radio Frequency Radiation (RF) when they transmit data. This is the same type emitted by devices like cell phones, Wi-Fi routers, and other smart home devices. They are safe and well below the limit set by the FCC: https://factcheck.afp.com/doc.afp.com.34KB2DJ https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/aug/04/instagram-posts/theres-no-evidence-radiation-emitted-apple-airpods/ https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2022/08/10/fact-check-context-missing-claim-health-effects-airpods/9661778002/

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1872386967574327430

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
