I mean, other than being ugly.

2.4Ghz band is the non licensed band for good reason, it's rather useless for good Rf transmission because it's the resonant frequency of water, and as such much of the energy transmitted will be absorbed by water in the air, yet still good for heating food in a microwave (if the food has water in it).
Are GHz frequencies bad for people? 100% yes, the debate is at what power density and the FCC defines a level. Standing near/close a 100kW radio tower is not good. Standing inside your microwave will boil you to death.
We are bombarded by freq all the time coming from space, yet we still live.
