Products can help you use tech more safely — policy fixes the problem.
A well-engineered case can lower near-body exposure in real use (by placement and orientation), but it can’t fix outdated, heat-only limits or stop designs that make phones transmit harder. The real solution is policy reform and light-based indoor connectivity — while we teach better habits today.
No percentage claims. Real-world reduction = orientation + antenna behavior + duty cycle.
Until standards address modulation, pulses, cumulative dose and kids, the true costs fall on families.
Accessories can reduce dose in use — but they can’t correct regulatory gaps that allow risky defaults to persist.
Move indoor connectivity toward light (Li-Fi / optical) and seat RF health oversight with health agencies.
Misleading marketing vs. first-principles design
| Misleading claim or feature | TruthCase™ principle |
|---|---|
| “99% protection everywhere” from a fabric swatch | Orientation & duty cycle matter. Place the shield between you & the phone; teach habits. |
| Metal loops, magnet plates, thick 360° wraps | Don’t detune antennas. Phones compensate with higher power. |
| Large unshielded ear-side speaker hole | Maintain continuity at the ear. No big aperture where you need reduction most. |
| Vague or no usage guidance | Teach calls, pocket orientation, distance, and night discipline. |
Design that obeys physics + honest guidance beats slogans.
TruthScore — quick red-flag check
Tick any that apply to your current case, then read the guidance below.
Ohmmeter verification — proof you can touch
- Set any basic ohmmeter to continuity (beep) mode.
- Touch one lead to the access point near the ear-side aperture inside the front cover.
- Touch the other lead to a second point on the shield layer.
- Continuity = a real conductive shield path.
A transparent way to prove there’s more than marketing fabric in the cover.
What a good case can (and can’t) do
Products are training wheels. Policy is the solution.
Ask for modern guidance, enforcement of existing health-agency mandates, and light-based indoor networks where feasible. Copy the letter below or write your own.
Tip: Request Li-Fi pilots for classrooms/offices, clear usage guidance (orientation/distance), and a review of siting rules that currently prevent communities from considering health evidence.
Systemic Fix — Deep Dives & Actions
These pages connect the policy dots: FCC remand, Section 704 preemption, Public Law 90-602, and the Light-First pivot (Bell → Li-Fi) with the Schumann/techno-biofilm model.
Repeal Section 704 — restore health voices
704 preempts communities from denying towers on the basis of RF health effects if FCC limits are met. Your page argues this gags First & Tenth Amendment functions and must be repealed.
Make the FCC finish the job
The D.C. Circuit found the FCC’s decision to keep 1996 limits “arbitrary and capricious” and sent it back. Track the days and press for a full, reasoned response.
Enforce the “shall” — restart RF research
Public Law 90-602 says the Secretary shall run an electronic-product radiation program, including research and public information. Your page shows a live counter to hold HHS to it.
Bell’s Photophone → Li-Fi in every building
Light was first — and it’s the clean indoor path now. Advocate a national Li-Fi-first policy while standards modernize.
The Light Age vs. the Microwave Age
Interactive history: from the Photophone to Section 704 and today’s RF saturation — and the pivot back to light, research, and honest standards.
Schumann Cavity — Techno-Biofilm viewer
Visualize how man-made RF fills the Earth-ionosphere cavity over time and why “re-quieting” matters for cells, brains, and kids.
Quick answers
Does it “block 99%”?
No slogans. Real-world exposure depends on placement, antenna behavior, and duty cycle — not a fabric number.
Why avoid magnets/loops/plates?
They can detune antennas. Phones respond by increasing transmit power to hold the link — the opposite of what you want.
Is TruthCase™ the same as QuantaCase®?
TruthCase™ is QuantaCase® by RF SAFE — built to avoid antenna mistakes, enable proper use, and lead the policy change we actually need.
What about kids?
Teach distance (speaker or wired), avoid pockets, shorten on-head calls, and keep phones off nightstands near heads.
Evidence at a glance
- Epidemiology: Some high-use patterns show elevated glioma risk.
- Animal bioassays: Large studies report tumor signals at non-thermal levels.
- Mechanism: Pulsed, polarized signals can perturb ion channels & oxidative stress pathways.
- Policy: U.S. limits remain thermal-only (1996); communities face siting constraints under federal preemption.
