I very much would like to hear it, if true. I'd also like to know about Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.

Your statement, that after all these years since the smartphones have been invented, you'd like to hear something about smartphones radiation, very much like, pardon, just speaks for itself. You don't want to very much hear about smartphone radiation. Because if you did want, you would've already read something about it.

We've heard that "it might" for years. Actual evidence would be nice.

I can't tell from your writing what kind of sins you are even accusing the parent of, but personally, I have read about it and still share the parent's desires. I'm not sure why one wouldn't.

Because there's a huge amount of evidence[0] that these harms are fictional, created and promoted by a mix of new age anti-tech people, snake oil salespeople touting literal tinfoil hats, and scammers looking to make a quick buck.

The whole thing is nonsense, and there is an abundance of evidence of that. There is literally no evidence of these supposed widespread harms that are somehow both an existential threat and not measurable in thousands of studies and hundreds of meta-analyses.

So, yeah, asking for info here is like saying "gosh, maybe smoking really doesn't have any health impacts, I'd love to see some studies on it."
