IPhone 12 sales banned in France due to radiation levels

IPhone 12 sales banned in France due to radiation levels

Hello,

Have you heard of the latest news in the EMF world?

Apple is currently prohibited from selling the iPhone 12 in France due to non-compliance with radiation level standards.​

This is an ongoing story, but an important step in our fight against the dangers of EMF radiation so I wanted to send out info right away.

France suspending sales (and threatening total recall) of iPhones due to excess radiation helps to legitimize mainstream concern over the dangers of excessive EMF exposure.

Many other EU countries are also discussing the ban or suspension of iPhone 12 sales.

I'll keep you updated as this story continues to progress, but here is what is happening:

The French regulatory body ANFR has imposed a sales ban on the iPhone 12, following tests that revealed the device's Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) exceeded legal limits.

SAR measures the rate at which radio frequency energy is absorbed by the human body.

According to ANFR, the iPhone 12 demonstrated a SAR value of 5.74 watts per kilogram in tests that mimicked the phone being held in hand or carried in a pocket.

This surpasses the European Union's legal threshold of 4.0 watts per kilogram.

This development follows a recent investigation by the Chicago Tribune, which found that many popular mobile phone models emit radiation at levels up to five times higher than the legally accepted limit.

It's worth mentioning that current testing methods are based on outdated Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulations from 1996—a time when cell phones were expensive and primarily used for business, medical, or military applications.

Clearly, our interaction with these devices has dramatically evolved since then, but regulatory standards have not kept pace.

What Happens Now?

ANFR's findings will be shared with regulatory authorities in other EU countries.

This could potentially lead to wider repercussions for the device. It's disconcerting that regulatory bodies have been sluggish in updating guidelines, despite a growing body of scientific evidence linking increased radiation exposure to certain types of cancer.

Nonetheless, this action by ANFR could ignite broader scrutiny and elevate public awareness of this crucial issue.

What Should I Do?

Apple said today they plan to release a software update for the iPhone 12 that should reduce the radiation levels, although they appear to simultaneously be denying the allegations as well.

However, I hope as a member of the EMF Academy audience you understand the dangers of EMF radiation and what can be done to reduce your exposure.
