I was up half the night on the internet trying to find a site that will give me the honest truth about the dangers of radiation from computers & mobile phones. I had little success, all I found was dozens of blogs from people having hysterics about these gadgets, saying that if you use one, you`ll get all sorts of horrible diseases, cancer in particular. I always carry my smartphone on a belt around my waist because I like to listen to music on it when I`m out, & when I use my laptop, I have it on my lap because I can`t read the print on it if I have it at arms length. The people who wrote these blogs say that it`s extremely dangerous to have close contact with these gadgets, & tell stories of how theyv`e been very ill from contact with computers & mobile phones. What do they expect us to do?, I mean theyr`e an unavoidable part of modern life, & all these scare stories are really stressing me out. Is there any website that can give me an unbiased view on all this?

Stressed about microwave radiation.
Probably not hairy, good luck with your research.
I think it'll be many years yet before anyone is truely sure...best not to let it get to you though, I did hear one story once about a chip shop owner who died of multiple tumours caused by microwaves - don't be alarmed though, what would anyone else expect if you used a microwave WITHOUT A DOOR to cook your pies? Always follow instructions and you should be fine...as to the other aspect it is well-known that a very tiny percentage of people are hyper sensitive to all these waves and have to live without technology/electricity, but i don't think any of them got cancer/tumours...
I am also intrigued by what you find, however i think bloggers on this topic are full of ****
good luck x
It's ionizing radiation that causes DNA damage and subsequent potential for cancer - things such as X-rays, Gamma rays and high energy U.V. Non ionizing radiation doesn't have the energy to cause cell damage and microwaves (along with low energy U.V., visible light and radio) so it's not something to worry about unless you are generating enough to microwaves to cook yourself!
Thanks, LadySaaba, Iv`e always suspected that these anti-technology bloggers were talking out of their rear ends. Most of them were`nt even scientists, just average people who knew people who`d gotten ill, & used these devices, but it never occured to them that their illnesses were just coindidental.
