Electromagnetic radiation, as in visible light, radio signals or as this Iphone has a fucking RMBK melting its core inside?
Someone has a link to those test they performed to claim this?
I call it bullshit
To be fair, it's not completely made-up. There is a body of evidence that suggests that even non-ionizing EM radiation may have so-called "biological effects" in humans.
Organizations like the Environmental Health Trust have been banging the "cellphones cause infertility and cancer" drum for years, and cites numerous studies on their website.
Of course, much of this research is of questionable relevance to real-world use cases involving actual phones and actual humans as opposed to, say, a bunch of rats being exposed to low-power microwaves in a lab for hours on end, but it exists nonetheless.
Environmental Health Trust is a single issue organization founded to specifically claim that radio waves are dangerous.
They are alarmists bereft of credible arguments and should be treated as such.
Meanwhile apple and chinese factories have 0 interests in shadowing researches that could put in danger their biggest source of income
