So, do I now have cancer? Even thou I bought a iphone 12 mini?
5.6 watts a second is 5.6 joules which would, if entirely directed at your nuts, heat the equivalent mass in water to your ballsack by 0.20°C
I've done worse temperature changes to ballsacks by putting them in my mouth you'll be fineeeee
What a comment, what a name, what a purpose. Claps.
God I forgot I was named that
Lmfao you portrayed relevent scientific information contextualized with the human scrotum and you're telling me you did all that forgetting your name? Amazing.
i just be loving balls :(
And who could blame you
For a moment, I read it as having done it to your own ballsack. I was equal parts impressed and intrigued (scared?).
ok thanks now I feel save to use my iphone as vibrator
Nah, this has got to be about the radio waves that make up cell phone signal which is non ionizing radiation just like FM radio is. Good to regulate because of how close we keep phones to us. Extended exposure to too high levels can cause problems.
From the Googling I just did, the levels phones aren't allowed to be sold are purposedly kept way lower than what would be actually harmful. If you're actually worried about overexposure, like if your job had you make phone calls all day, use headphones, that way it's not contacting you.
That's just a partial answer.
When doing this calculations, safety commissions always takes count of what they call "cumulative exposure", as mobile phones are just one of many devices emitting radiations, with modems, IOT stuff, bluetooth/radio rigs, microwave ovens, even some LED lamps... If one devices "contributes too much" to the summation then it must be discarded.
Please explain in your own words what you think radiation is and how you believe this kind causes harm. As in, the actual mechanism. This should be good.
I don't work in physics or medicine, but I have background in workplace safety checks and how EMF regulation works. If you think I interpreted wrong the informations try to do it in a constructive way.
Otherwise you're just creating more confusion
In other words, you don't have any idea what you're talking about, as evidenced by the fact that you refused to answer the question. You don't get to have an opinion on something if you don't have the slightest idea of what it is or how it works, nobody does.
Depends on where you store your phone and how close the nearest tower is.
If you regularly have low or no reception and keep your phone between your legs, it could cause problems. The phone doesn’t need to be making a voice call to ramp up the signal; it just needs to be compensating for a weak tower signal.
The mini, due to it's small size and easy to boof design I think would make it the most cancerous of the designs.
Imagine, finally being able to boof your iphone and then the battery goes full spicy pillow and pops. And the inside of the battery is where the real cancer magic happens.
Pretty embarrassing stuff if you ask me.
Just mini cancer
