What in my post makes you believe I don't understand the posted study? Did you not see the "While I'm not worried myself due to the sheer number of null studies that exist" part?

I was a developer and researcher at a mobile phone manufacturer for 15 years. We kept well up to date on this topic.

So we can agree you know nothing about primary biomedical research.

I'm sure some idiots strapped a rat to a radio tower at some point, to prove some stupid point.

I don't want to be that guy, but do you think the manufacturers would be telling anyone if there really were issues?

Actually, yeah. I never got the impression anyone was trying to hide something. Mobile network & phone manufacturers sponsored research that was freely published. There was a time when it wasn't as clear as it is today that there were no long term issue risks.

Example here: https://dceg.cancer.gov/fellowship-training/training-resources-for-fellows-and-staff/radiation-epidemiology-course/cell-phones-cancer-risk.pdf

no you dont, Medical/biology research isnt equal to being a phone researcher. you dont even study the same fields. do you have a degree in biology? did research in biology, even botany? if you dint you know nothing about it.

Thank you. For those of us who know nothing about that, I think a comment with a bit of a different premise could help. Like:

be careful if you see someone claiming there is a study to back him up because the most supportive studies entailed comparatively extreme conditions and a bunch of null studies exist too.

(Disclaimer, I have spent zero years at a mobile phone manufacturer and have done little reading on the topic)
