Are mobiles dangerous

Answer 1

There is controversy and debate about whether mobile phones are safe. The Stewart Report was commissioned in 1999 to look into health effects of mobile phones and found that the balance of evidence of that time did not indicate adverse health effects.

Long term health damage may take many years to show up. Cancers typically take between 15 and 30 years to manifest but the carcinogen may start causing damage immediately.

Since the Stewart report, many studies have been published. All the independent studies show an association with brain tumours. Other studies indicate mobile phones may increase other cancer risks and damage fertility.

The Department of Health advises that children under 16 should only use mobiles for short essential calls.

Answer 2

Mobile phones are only dangerous when they're used in inappropriate situations.

For example, using a mobile phone can be distracting, thus making it dangerous to use while driving a car, bicycling, or even walking down the street. This doesn't mean the phone is necessarily dangerous in these situations, so the user's good judgment is key.

Contrary to popular misconceptions, the radiation from cell phones cannot cause harm to a person's body. It can't cause cancer because it only generates radio waves, which are non-ionizing waves of energy. The radio waves from a cell phone could cause heating if the signal was powerful and concentrated, but a cell phone's transmitter is much too weak to cause this effect.

Answer 3

I think yes. Well... according to several researches made by scientists use of mobile phones may cause cancer. Use of hands free n talking onit may be dangerous.

Answer 4

It really depends because most devices seem to explode when in the heat.

Answer 5

Landline phones are much easier to tap into. Mobile phones are not difficult to tap into, but take more effort and some mobile phone can even block the effort. But no phone is untappable.
