How was EMR danger brought into the market?

http://bit.ly/Ccckd Normally, the process of a product entering the market takes years. Years of rigorous tests, to make sure that the product is safe and ready to be utilized by society to it's greatest potential. The product must be approved, tested, and have great testimonials for it to be looked upon with a 'check' and be ordered in by stores. Not for cellular phones.

How can a product which has gone through rigorous testing be deemed unsafe by so many studies about 20-30 years after it's original launch? How could the danger of EMR be approved by tests, deemed safe, and launched right into the modern market when clearly, something is wrong?! Clearly, the EMR cellphones are emitting is unsafe, so in what way could have the modern cellphone smuggled it's self into the market? Well, in this blog post, you're about to find out what all cellphone companies have been hiding from you for the last 20 years.

Cellphone Testing
First off, unlike any other products, cellphones were, indeed, never tested for safety. They only entered the marketplace due to a regulatory loophole. Questions about cell phone safety arose in the early 1990s, when a businessman filed a lawsuit alleging that cell phones caused his wife’s death due to brain cancer. As you can see, the only reason cellphones entered the modern market was because of a loophole. The big problem here? Well, since society thinks that cellphones must be safe in order to enter the market and they were tested before being shipped, we cannot convince the majority of the population that they are wrong. Only after 20 years came out studies proving those who deemed cellphones harmful correct, and because we have been using cellphones for so long, society refuses to accept the change and is not willing to live life with less exposure to EMR since they are so used to it's positive effects.

Denial by Key Players
The key players in this issue (more on that tomorrow in my next post), refuse to accept what they know to be true. A couple months ago, a EMR level tracking app was denied to be put on the App Store by Mr. Steve Jobs himself. Why? Because the smart man knows it'll only bring concern, and that the major companies (here being Apple) cannot lose any money from this. As well, companies could be paying false labs to publish fake studies, just so that they can continue to reek in profit, when they know that the real studies are actually correct.

What's Happening
Overall, I know that what is happening is the following: each side of the debate has it's own advantage. The cellular provocateurs know that people are accustomed to using cellphones, and that there is a very slight chance that the whole smartphone industry will be set aside since we as people are already so used to the presence of EMR in our society and that it will be very hard for us to give it up. The side of the debate that wants 'out' of EMR has an advantage too, since they have real facts and studies supporting their point of view.

The Big Problem
Pretty much, the problem is that people aren't willing to accept what has been true ever since cellphones came out: they are dangerous. A cellular phone is basically a radio that sends signals on waves to a base station, your body tissue.

I feel that I need to spread the message. I believe that we need to educate people about this issue before it is too late. What do you feel? Think? Comment down below, I am eager to hear others' opinions. More to come, follow me on Twitter for more frequent updates (@em_radiation).
