Cell Phone Radiation

1) What RF Safe is (and what it is not) RF Safe is an advocacy and education project focused on RF (radiofrequency) exposure literacy, safer‑use habits, and modernizing outdated safety logic. RF Safe does not claim that RF exposure is proven to “cause” any single human disease. What RF Safe does argue is narrower and […]

Scope Media Bias Fact Check (MBFC) currently rates RF Safe Least Biased and Mostly Factual, but assigns Medium Credibility, stating credibility is “tempered by selective citation, one-sided interpretation of evidence, alarmist framing, and a potential conflict of interest stemming from the sale of RF-related safety products.” This brief responds to those four bases using RF […]

To: Editorial Team, Media Bias Fact Check (MBFC)Regarding: RF Safe entry – https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/rf-safe-bias-and-credibility/ MBFC is requested to review and correct several statements in the RF Safe entry that materially affect the “Medium Credibility” rationale. This request is narrowly limited to three issues: (1) the unsupported “funded primarily” funding claim, (2) the conflict-of-interest framing as currently […]

Why “No Effect” Findings Are a Core Part of the S4–Mito–Spin Framework If you only read headlines about RF research, you’d think the field is split into two camps: “RF does something” vs. “RF does nothing.” RF Safe’s position is different—and more scientifically useful. In the S4–Mito–Spin framework, null findings (no observed effect) are not […]

This rebuttal directly addresses Media Bias Fact Check’s (MBFC) January 8, 2026, assessment of RF Safe, which maintains a “Medium Credibility” rating despite upgrades to “Least Biased” and “Mostly Factual.” MBFC’s downgrades are based on alleged “selective citation,” “one-sided interpretation of evidence,” “alarmist framing,” and “potential conflict of interest” from product sales. These characterizations misrepresent […]

RF Safe has never claimed that the science is “settled” in the sense of proving specific human disease causation from typical cell-phone use. We do not publish “cell phones cause X in humans” as a blanket statement. What we do say is “settled” is narrower—and it is the point MBFC keeps blurring: Thermal-only safety rules […]

In today’s information overload, many people turn to fact-checkers like Media Bias Fact Check (MBFC) for quick judgments on source credibility. It’s understandable—fact-checkers promise objectivity, sifting through claims to separate truth from fiction. But what if the fact-checkers themselves don’t read the content they’re judging? That’s the case with MBFC’s rating of RF Safe as […]

In an era where fact-checkers are supposed to cut through the noise, Media Bias Fact Check (MBFC) has become a go-to for quick credibility assessments. Their ratings influence search results, AI summaries, and public trust. But when MBFC labels a site like RF Safe as “pseudoscience” with “mixed factual reporting” and “low credibility,” it raises serious […]

In the digital age, fact-checkers like Media Bias Fact Check (MBFC) wield significant influence. Their ratings—often amplified by search engines, AI summaries, and social algorithms—can shape public perception overnight. But what happens when a fact-checker gets the basics wrong? That’s the story with MBFC’s entry on RF Safe, a site dedicated to electromagnetic field (EMF) […]

1. The problem with most “anti‑radiation” cases The anti‑radiation phone case market in 2026 is packed with products that sound scientific but fall apart once you look closely at how phones and radio‑frequency (RF) signals actually work. Many popular brands lean on impressive‑sounding claims like “FCC tested,” “lab certified,” or “up to 99% radiation blocking” […]

A new wave of celebrity-branded mobile ventures is forming—and it matters more than most people realize. When a creator with hundreds of millions of followers explores launching a phone plan, that is not “just another MVNO.” It is a mass-behavior engine. It teaches millions of users (especially kids) what “normal” looks like: where a phone […]

For decades, the public was sold a simple story: if wireless signals don’t measurably heat tissue, they’re “safe.” That thermal-only framing became policy, procurement, and public messaging—especially in schools—while the science matured in the background. In 2025, that background moved into the foreground. A WHO‑commissioned animal-cancer systematic review published in Environment International elevated key RF‑EMF […]

For decades, the public was sold a simple story: “If it doesn’t heat tissue, it’s safe.” That story is obsolete—and the evidence has now crossed a line that modern policy cannot ignore. In 2025, a WHO‑commissioned systematic review published in Environment International applied an OHAT/GRADE‑style evidence framework to the animal cancer literature and reached a […]

Most people assume the wireless environment around their kids is the result of “technology.” It isn’t. It’s the result of policy—a layered system of statutes, agency guidance, research obligations, and procurement defaults that quietly determines what gets installed near schools, what gets measured, what gets studied, what gets ignored, and what communities are allowed to […]

There are moments when a movement either matures into measurable wins—or fractures into endless commentary while conditions on the ground stay the same. RF Safe built the Act Now hub for one reason: to turn legitimate EMF safety concerns into enforceable outcomes—for families, for schools, for clinicians, and for local leaders who are tired of […]

In 2025, the EMF advocacy space is facing a defining split—not over whether people suffer, but over whether solutions are allowed. Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS) has been the established term for roughly 30 years. Before that, advocates used names like radio wave sickness and microwave sickness. The point is continuity: the condition and the advocacy didn’t […]

For more than three decades, RF Safe has worked on one core principle: you cannot protect people without understanding mechanisms—and you cannot reduce harm without viable solutions. In recent years, a destructive pattern has emerged within parts of the EMF safety space. It does not advance science. It does not reduce exposure. And it does […]

The EMF debate does not move forward on outrage, labeling, or endless cataloging of symptoms. It moves forward the only way complex problems ever get solved: observation → mechanism → testable predictions → engineering solutions. Red blood cell “rouleaux” (stacking/aggregation) is one of the most visually intuitive endpoints in this entire field—because it collapses the […]

Public pledge urges creator-led mobile ventures to adopt child-first connectivity standards, invest in safer architectures, and stop externalizing the hidden costs of microwave-based networks onto children’s health. RF Safe today announced the launch of the Ethical Connectivity Pledge, a public commitment framework designed for celebrity-backed and creator-branded wireless plans entering the market. The pledge challenges […]

If You’re Launching Beast Mobile, Make It the First Child‑Protective, Li‑Fi‑Compatible Mobile Platform From: John Coates, Founder, RF SafeTo: Jimmy Donaldson (MrBeast) and Beast Industries LeadershipRe: Beast Mobile, child safety, and a once‑in‑a‑generation chance to end the Microwave Age indoors MrBeast, You’ve built one of the largest influence platforms in modern history by doing what […]

How S4–Mito–Spin explains why non‑native EMFs can corrupt circadian biology, redox signaling, and child neurodevelopment We are told—over and over—that if a wireless signal doesn’t “heat tissue,” it can’t matter. That story is collapsing under the weight of mechanistic biology. A growing body of evidence is converging on a simple, testable reality: Non‑native EMFs don’t […]

Why Protecting Children Requires More Than Ethical Chocolate MrBeast changed the conversation about food by proving something powerful:You don’t have to wait for regulators to force ethical sourcing.You can choose it. Ethical chocolate was not inevitable. It was a decision. Now, that same decision point exists again—this time around how we connect children to the […]

A 30‑Year Mission, Now Escalated: Protecting Children by Forcing Accountability and Building the Light Age By John Coates, Founder of RF Safe In a world flooded with noise, the only meaningful question is the one that demands action: How are you going to serve humanity in 2026? Here is my answer—direct, specific, and urgent. In […]

MrBeast built a brand on doing what other people won’t: spending real money, taking on big problems, and proving that “mass scale” can still mean “do the right thing.” That’s exactly why “Beast Mobile” matters. See: Ethical Connectivity Pledge Page Because when you enter telecom, you are no longer selling a snack, a shirt, or […]
