    Quite a bit of it does, actually.

     

    …but it doesn’t surprise me that Apple would avoid directing their phone's radio transmission at the user's face. ;) 


     

    You’re holding the device to your head. It really doesn’t matter.

    Just like turning on a cellphone on a plane could have caused it to crash?

    Note that you used could instead of will. All that means is they haven't been able to prove it… something that isn't impossible but also not easy.

    Your comment doesn't say exactly how much EMF energy is emitted or its duration. Growing up under a power line is different from using a hair dryer in the morning

    And I’ve never understood that. Is glass radio transparent, too? Why can’t the front serve for that?


     

    Safety reasons, i.e. not beaming EM radiation directly through the head instead of away via the back.

    Again, it’s non-ionizing. There’s nothing to suggest it does any damage.

    No, there isn't but that doesn't stop a lot of people being concerned over how much EMR is emitted and a legal requirement to provide SAR figures.

    Right. I'm sceptical of these risk claims just because the strength of the signal relative to naturally occurring phenomena seems utterly insignificant. The planet itself is a huge electromagnet of unimaginable field strength and the sun douses us in so much radiation that it gives X-Ray machines penis envy. If we survive THAT, how can the teeny-weeny tiny little signals emitted by phones and routers pose any kind of threat?

    1) Fully agree; it's a total non-issue. Strangely enough the winers on the subject are of a certain kind, looking a certain way, similar.

    2) LOL @ "penis envy"

    Duh!!!!! Yes, My third grade education lead me to that conclusion but thanks for reminding me....:no:
