FINALLY an article about pwm on the front page! I’ve had to stick with an old iPhone 11 due to all other iphones being oled with pwm. Same for the new devices with mini led. Though high frequency, they still also flicker and give me issues. It really is a struggle to get new devices in this pwm and colour dithering era.

Who among you who are posting are going to stop using your iPhones, and move to a yurt in the middle of Siberia to avoid RF and put your money where your mouth is? Who is all wired, and have taken steps to eliminate RF exposure to yourself from AC to DC power adapters? How about coffee -- do you not drink that?

Do you live in brick houses? Do you have cinderblock construction? Is your house more than 30 years old? Do you live in a valley, or in New England at all? How about downwind of Yosemite, or near the San Andreas? Do you drive more than five miles a week? Do you take walks, more than two miles a week? Do you have trees within 50 feet of your house? Do you live in an apartment with neighbors or roommates? Are you over 40 if you're a male, and over 45 if female? Do you live within 20 miles of a coal plant or mine? How about within two miles of a nuclear plant? How about in the landing or takeoff path of an international airport? All of these things have exposure risks to assorted dangers far, far greater than that of wi-fi or 5G.

That’s not the point. Of course you’re going to die of something and there’s a myriad of factors that might contribute to that and you might never know which one did it. But I did make a conscious effort to quit smoking 15 years ago due to it being “unhealthy”. And I do make a conscious effort to use the speaker on my iPhone whenever the thing get’s so hot next to my ear that I feel the imprint of it for a while after. Wether it’s going to kill me, or wether I’ll get lung cancer or not if I start smoking again is not the point. 

I have the right to choose my own indulgence, good or bad. But I’d like to know if it’s good or bad, which I ultimately might never know, as “science” is only true until they figure out they were wrong 20 years down the road.

The point is: the tech is too new to have conclusive data, so you shouldn’t claim it does.

I think this article does a disservice to AI readers by presenting one man's opinion as the gospel, more or less, while brushing away a lot of recent studies as not belonging to the category of 'science' this particular author will accept as valid. And, this bias reflects right in the title. .

So, my point is that, like many others have pointed out, this is far from a subject on which the final word has been said. For the author to suggest otherwise and to declare the matter as 'settled science' is, to put it mildly, irresponsible and a gross disservice to AI readers.

Amen!

On top of that, the general defensiveness and know-it-all vibe the author’s follow up comments emit is very disappointing, being an admin and representative here. Sorry dude, it just is. 

To reiterate the EU 5G warning, here is a link to the full letter, signed late 2017 by more than 180 scientists and doctors from over 36 countries, pleading for a revision of the old and outdated WHO conclusion by funding new, impartial and transparent research.

You seriously dissapoint me appleinsider This is such a misleading click-baity article.

Has really no one read the following article? Just google “EU 5G warning”.
https://ehtrust.org/scientists-and-doctors-demand-moratorium-on-5g-warning-of-health-effects/

“(Örebro, Sweden) Sept. 13, 2017

Over 180 scientists and doctors from 35 countries sent a declaration to officials of the European Commission today demanding a moratorium on the increase of cell antennas for planned 5G expansion. Concerns over health effects from higher radiation exposure include potential neurological impacts, infertility, and cancer.”

“With hazards at those exposures, we are very concerned that the added exposure to 5G radiation could result in tragic, irreversible harm.”

“Peer-reviewed research has documented industry influence on studies of the health impacts of wireless radiation. We are insisting on a moratorium on 5G until non-industry research can be conducted to ensure the safety of the public.”
