Cell phones use radiation in the microwave portion of the EM spectrum. Microwave radiation is non-ionizing. The only thing microwave radiation does is heat things, which is what these regulations are meant to protect consumers from in the first place.

I hate headlines like this because they fuel harmful misinformation. How many people are gonna come away from this headline thinking their phone might give them cancer? How many of those people are going to protest against further development of wireless technology from the misinformed position that non-ionizing EM radiation (such as visible light) can somehow cause cancer?

A little late to the party. Apple already announced a patch for them.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

A regulator in France asked this week that Apple stop selling its iPhone 12 there, after it said tests found that the device emits radiation levels exceeding European restrictions, giving fresh attention to old concerns about health and cellphone usage.

Apple disputed the findings, saying the device, released in 2020, has been certified by international bodies and complies with regulations, the Associated Press reported.

The Agence Nationale des Fréquences (ANFR) said in a statement that it expects Apple to “deploy all available means to put an end to the noncompliance” and that failure to act could result in a product recall.

The move has revived discussions about the potential risks of cellphone radiation, a fraught topic on which decades of scientific research remains inconclusive.

They also say the way cellphones are used now — often with headsets or for texting or social media — reduces exposure because the phones are held at a distance from the head and body.

France’s digital minister said the iPhone 12’s radiation levels are still much lower than those that scientific studies say could harm users, and that a software update could solve the compliance issue.

See studies on honey bees behavior with a 900 MHz transmitter. Or you see studies talking about how electromagnetic fields interfere with the calcium ions receptors in the cell, this produces oxidative stress. Seeing that after all the scientific literature written about it.
