But I do. EM radiation emitted by cellphones are non-ionizing, and therefore does not have the energy required to damage DNA. Furthermore, the heating effect of of cellphones is non existent because it operates at such low levels.
Clearly you do not follow peer reviewed scientific articles on the subject, because despite these facts we have found increased cancer rates in many different cases. You say these things like you are certain which clearly shows you aren't a scientist, because scientist don't talk in absolutes about new technology. Proving something causes cancer is incredibly difficult, and we can't say anything for certain until after the fact.
But that's just FUD. Why aren't you afraid of all the other "possibly carcinogenic" substances like coffee, pickled vegetables, carbon black, talcum powder, or nickel?
But it is not, it is me a scientist, reading peer reviewed articles on the subject which have indicated both that it may and may not be carcinogenic and so I remain skeptical. If anything this is you having a religious level of faith in the fact that the current science is a perfect picture of the universe, which is an absurd position.
Pointing out other seemingly mundane things that may be carcinogenic has nothing to do with the discussion, so I'm just going to ignore that red herring.
You over using memes that don't really apply.
I never claimed this, and therefore that is a strawman.
It is not a strawman, perhaps you should read more about what a strawman argument because it is often misused.
You are basically making the claim that we have a perfect understanding of all the fields being generated by cellphones and know the full consequences of it. There is no other reason to believe this other than the fact that is it useful, unless you can provide a reason you believe it despite no scientific backing, that doesn't just amount to faith.
We haven't had enough time to prove anything yet, so having certain belief in anything related to cell phone radiation would be silly. And history serves to prove this correct over and over.
ad hominem pls go
Again, you may want to retake that critical thinking class you took in college because that is not an ad-hominem attack. If anything you could argue it was an appeal to authority because I was making the claim you should have been educated in the subject before sharing your opinion.
It was certainly not an ad-hominem, so your hubris about telling me to go is almost comical. I did not attack you, I pointed out your shallow arguments, then said I would more interested if you were actually an authority of the subject.
But really I don't really care what your uninformed opinion is on the subject, your time would be better used actually studying the subject instead of wasting that time sharing your opinion about it. No one really cares about your uninformed opinion about random subjects you never bothered to study in detail, most people want the specs on the material because it does have practical uses despite what you believe.
also, since i'm in the mood, i'll mow down all your other uses as well
Well thanks for cherry picking the ones you found easy to attack and ignoring all the other practical uses to make your argument seem stronger, nice tactic.

Or you can stop being so fucking lazy and do a google search. Seriously this is what is so frustrating, is you waste time trolling people in my thread with your uninformed opinions when you could have spent that time fucking looking it up. Its one thing if you actually educate yourself before coming in and having a disagreement but being willfully ignorant and full of hubris just makes you look like an ass.
http://www.jemic.com/faraday-bags.htmlNice job "mowing" that one down.
or you can, just take out the battery. bonus: it costs $0
Fair point, but that is a bit more of a hassle than slipping it into and out of a bag.
Again nice job "mowing" that one down. Must have been in debate club with these epic debate skills.
What country do you live in? My recently renewed passport only has a magnetic stripe, no RFIDs.
Again seriously can't you just do a fucking google search before puffing up your chest and pulling out your e-dick?
http://travel.state.gov/passport/passport_2788.htmlAlso that was an example, since rfid's are very useful they will be in more things. So this material may find more creative uses.
And again amazing work "mowing" that one down.
tl/dr: Retake that critical thinking class, stop acting like an superior asshole about subjects you didn't bother to research and stop trolling my thread
