Microwave as ad-hoc Faraday cage? (slrpnk.net)

Just occurred to me that the humble microwave should be a fairly effective Faraday cage, certainly for the microwave spectrum, anyone know how good it is for the relevant communication frequencies?

I've never had any interferences.

All my microwaves in the last 20 years cause interference from several rooms away! Like Bluetooth headsets dropping signal.

I have a device that measures radiation and EMF, and that thing spikes when the microwave is on, too. 😮
