This. People claiming that cell phone signals cause cancer or other ill health effects are crackpots, nothing more, nothing less.

The claims simply don't make sense. Non-ionizing EM radiation has absolutely no documented effects on humans.



You mean the people at the World Health Organization are crackpots? Microwave radiation is classified as a Class 2B carcinogen by WHO.

Here's 67 studies on the biological effects of microwaves, ranked by transmission power:

All of them crackpots?

Here's a study of EM fields on neonatal babies:

"Electrical Grounding Improves Vagal Tone in Preterm Infants"

There was also an article written on this publication:

I guess the babies were not informed of your crackpot theory?

Here's a website with a database of 26,819 publications on the effects of electromagnetic fields on biology, including human and animal studies:

More crackpots, I assume?

We have constantly accumulating evidence that EM radiation in fact IS harmful. The biggest reason the public is not aware of this, is simply because the wireless industry is making too much money from this technology.

The wireless industry employ some of the biggest lobbying groups in the world. With the amount of funds and leverage available to them, it becomes easier to influence legislation and decision makers.

That's all there is to it. No conspiracy, no crackpots. It's simply business


What a wonderful Gish Gallop. Thanks for letting me be another in your long line of intellectually dishonest copypasta responses. Keep on pushing conspiracy theories like the "deep state"!
