Yeah, but it is important to consider the wavelength. Did our cells evolve to handle constant RF exposure?

It's not really relevant for non-ionizing radiation such as RF, as the primary impact on our cells from RF is just heat.

And the thing to know about evolution and life is that life evolved to be robust in the face of changes and different environments.

I'm not an expert but while less dramatic than ionizing radiation, it certainly has more effect than just heat. Think RF can induce potentials especially as it regards cells ion transport, gates. And yeah, my question is more oriented towards whether human life is adapted to RF, I'm sure some bacteria would
On the upper end of the RF spectrum, the thermal radiation given off by us and everything around is is ever present.
