RE: New Study Links Cellphone Radiation to Tumors in Male Rats
We now have over 20 years of data and over that time phones have reduced the power of the radio transmissions they use (mostly because people demand the batteries last longer)
Even with 20 years of data (of people using phones and living near towers) there has been no correlation or statistical increase in cancer or other maladies. The problem here is you can't prove a negative and so people use that to try and muddy the waters. Nobody can prove that electromagnetic non-ionising radiation don't cause any maladies to living beings, but we sure do have a lot of data that suggests it's highly unlikely that they do. If you believe that's not reasonable for you then you can choose to reduce your exposure but please don't try and force that belief onto the rest of the population.
whose forcing anyone here? Just some nerds on the internet sharing ideas!
Sure here, meanwhile in the real world I have had a neighbour point to stories like this to oppose our town getting a phone tower. Maybe I took it more personally due to my circumstances but when you really do have someone who believes mobile phones give you cancer trying to force that belief onto you and your an entire community you can get a bit touchy and it makes you want to offer an alternate view point 🙂
I see. I have seen a lot of "good" data on both sides. What made up my mind is the simple fact that the FCC isn't in the business of providing contradictory data to those who wish to make large sums of money. What the CDC is for, in this case, is to provide plausible deniability to those who will reap tons of cash from adoptive use of this technology and keep the money flowing. 15-20 years down the road the CDC's research will provide cover to those who we might or might not find responsible for what I see is a pretty obvious increase of unexplained diseases/ailments among every age group in world population. You don't have to believe me or anyone, but we can see many gov't agencies becoming more a watchdog for large multi-nationals and lobbyist, much like the rest of gov't. Ever heard of the CDC and the FDA? Pretty dodgy fellas these days if you ask me! I especially love the class-action lawsuit commercials blasted on countless TV networks asking if this or that drug hurt you. They are becoming so commonplace now, and these agencies only allow for class-action suits instead of civil suits. Why? Because that's their real job. Not so much protecting the public. But to feign protection while building a case against why their clients, which is what they really are, should be held to more account. No one is forcing you to click on anything bro. Get over yerself
Sounds like you are also 'forcing' your opinions on others by being so hysterical about it. Just a note for you....The author of this article is not forcing anything on you, he is publishing an opinion piece based on a scientific study published by another organisation. So if you want to attack anyone, how about you attack them instead.
Oh so pointing out contrary inconvenient science is an attack?
