    I’ve already told that story but anyway: a relative told me that the GDPR was a conspiracy from Europe to destroy the European internet (why? why not!)

    So that guy literally deleted his own web site (full of old stuff, it was a big project) so that… he would not be forced to delete his own web site by the big bad Europe.

    He is also anti-vax, and allergic to Wifi and Bluetooth… except when he is in our house filled with Wifi and Bluetooth (but we have never told him, he could die!)

      A relative of my husband always requests we turn off the router, because she’s allergic to 5g. She starts feeling nauseous and itchy when it’s turned on. We used to sigh and just do it.

      However, I’ve found out she’s not actually allergic to 5g or wifi, it turns out she’s actually developed a reaction to the power light. Ever since I put a tiny bit of tape of the little green power light, she stopped complaining about the wifi entirely! My husband won’t let me tell her about this amazing medical breakthrough though, I wonder why.
