Is the iPhone the most dangerous cell phone ever?
Dr. Joseph Mercola thinks so. He’s concerned about that great modern boogeyman, cell phone radiation. But lucky for you, he’s got a solution he can sell you: the Blue Tube headset. The Blue Tube headset looks to be a 2.5 mm plug hooked into a tiny speakerbox at the other end. That speaker box then emits sound up a long, hollow tube (similar to how a stethoscope works) and into an earpiece similar to those found on higher-end headphones from Shure and Etymotic. What exactly makes an iPhone more “dangerous” than other cell phones? Well, Dr. Mercola helpfully points out that the iPhone emits radiation way more often than other cell phones, mostly because of what he calls “data waves.” Hookay. Let’s be real for a second: cellular phones do emit low-level electromagnetic (EM) radiation. I used to work as a radiological health physics technician, so I know a fair bit about radiation (which is why I used to be in that field. Not anymore). Without getting too science-lecturey about it, let’s j
