You're right about all your points but you are thinking Casually Sinister rather than Diabolically Malevolent.
The frequency is "feared by some" to damage human tissue. As if your phone becomes a microwave oven and cooks the whole room. Like a little grenade. Or cancer bomb, or zombie activator, or fill-in-the-blank.
