Will it actually prevent the automatic updates if you put your phone (off) in the microwave, as someone mentioned?

Lol. Yes, try this. The glass on the door of the microwave will not prevent anything from reaching your cell phones. A proper faraday cage needs to be 100% sealed by the same material all the way around, you can’t have five sides made up of metal and then the sixth wall be made of glass like in a residential microwave. This fallacy won’t stop anything.
No. No no. I wasn't being facetious. It works.
If you were to have tried it, you would know that your phone call did not go through for some reason, unless your microwave has a leak.
The 'glass' and surrounding body of a microwave has to be able to stop microwaves from pouring out... It works.
Maybe it’s dependent on how powerful your cell connection is to the tower. I’ve tried this in multiple microwaves and my ATT cell phone receives the call every time.
Try other microwaves too. Maybe 5g is different. Been a while since trying it... gimme a min.
OK, so. This used to work. No longer works.
