Study Links Cell Phones to DNA Damage

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the also-to-be-an-obnoxious-prick dept.

Amit Malhotra was one of several readers to point out a story running on numerous sites about a study linking cell phone use to DNA Damage. Of course, a recent gammaworld campaign has served to remind me that mutations are almost always beneficial, so there is nothign to fear.

  1. What about Bluetooth? by Bill+Walker · · Score: 0, Redundant
    So does Bluetooth damage cells in a similar fashion?

    I looked around briefly online, but I couldn't find any study on the effects of Bluetooth. It seems to me that similar caution should apply.

    Am I way off-base? Does anyone know?
