Interesting, thanks.
You start with a theory.
These cigarettes are not causing any harm because all of its effetcs are, [here comes your explanation/theory].
Not just "let's do science" and you hand out cartons of cigarettes and if no one gets sick, then you conclude it's fine.
The theory regarding smoking is what the common sense dictates. Inhaling ash is bad.
In case of the microwave the common sense is nothing, we can't even see it. Most people associate microwave radiation with microwave ovens, which do heating by creating magnetic fields changing over time to cause tiny molecules to wiggle, thus increase their entropy, energy, temperature. And it's just coincidence that these magnetic fields have a frequency of approx. 2.45 GHz.
So, OP should consider it a form of free heating in the winter, and sit outside in his pool on the top of Manhattan in the summer.
Then why conduct nonsense science? If he valued his life more than integrity, fine. But he could've had both, by simply not touching touchy subjects.
How can you reach the conclusion that there is a creator from the proposition "I think therefore I am"? I'm genuinely curious.
Pfizer spent most of that $48 billion on premiums, marketing, direct marketing doctors and hospital managers to Hawaii, etc..
How long can they last? Doesn't emitting ions cause the emitter to simply vaporize over time?
How exactly is this spying? They, at best, have your IP, some text and a few cookies from that domain. What could anyone do with the fact that you've been reading this and this at some site?
It's not like someone is constantly sending your passwords to a 3rd party. It's as harmful as someone seeing you read the news as you commute, wait at an airport, etc..
(NYT uses something similar; they seem to try to block blacklisted users from copying their text.)
JS can't read from the clipboard, only write to. So your passwords are safe.
