RFK Jr., HHS, and the FDA’s Cell Phone Radiation Reset

Policy RF Safe Jan 17, 2026

This RF Safe article reports that in mid-January 2026 HHS, led by Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., removed or redirected certain FDA webpages that previously conveyed strong “no-risk” conclusions about cellphone radiation. It argues the updated FDA framing emphasizes statutory duties (monitoring, testing, hazard…

FDA Removes “Safety Conclusion” Cellphone Radiation Pages as HHS Announces a New Study—Why the “NTP Was Too High Dose” Talking Point Fails

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 17, 2026

This RF Safe commentary argues that dismissing the National Toxicology Program (NTP) cellphone-radiation animal findings as “too high dose” is misleading because the NTP used multiple exposure tiers, including a lowest tier described as near regulatory relevance. It also claims FDA has removed webpages containing…

The Federal Script Just Changed on Cellphone Radiation: FDA Deletes “Old Conclusions” as HHS Launches a New Study

Policy RF Safe Jan 16, 2026

RF Safe reports that HHS confirmed plans to launch a new study on cellphone radiation and that an HHS spokesperson said the FDA removed webpages with “old conclusions” while new research is undertaken to identify knowledge gaps, including for emerging technologies. The article frames the FDA webpage changes as a…

A Monumental Shift: FDA’s Cellphone Radiation Page Overhaul – From Unsubstantiated Safety Claims to Embracing the 1968 Mandate

Policy RF Safe Jan 16, 2026

RF Safe reports that the U.S. FDA substantially revised its cellphone radiation webpages around January 15, 2026, removing or reducing prior language that broadly reassured the public about safety. The article argues the new framing more closely reflects the FDA’s statutory responsibilities under the Radiation…

When the FTC Put “Radiation Shield” Scams on Notice—and Why RF Safe Says the Warning Started Earlier

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 16, 2026

RF Safe recounts a timeline of FTC actions and consumer guidance targeting phone “radiation shield” stickers/patches that claimed large reductions in exposure, arguing these products can create a false sense of security. The post cites the FTC’s February 2002 enforcement actions and consumer alert, including…

RF Safe’s QuantaCase (also known as TruthCase)

Resources RF Safe Jan 16, 2026

RF Safe promotes its QuantaCase (also called TruthCase) as a leading “anti-radiation” phone case for 2026, emphasizing a directional shielding design intended to deflect RF energy away from the body.

The Anti‑Radiation Phone Case Market Runs on Percentages. RF Safe Refuses to Sell One.

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 16, 2026

RF Safe critiques the anti-radiation phone case market for relying on headline percentage-blocking claims that may reflect tests of shielding material rather than real-world phone behavior in a case on a live network. The article argues that poorly designed or misused shielding cases can interfere with a phone’s…

Why RF Safe’s TruthCase Refuses the “99% Blocking” Game — and Why That’s the Point

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 16, 2026

RF Safe argues that “anti-radiation” phone case marketing based on universal “99% blocking” claims is misleading because real-world phone emissions vary with signal conditions, orientation, and how a case affects the antenna. The post positions RF Safe’s TruthCase/QuantaCase as more credible specifically because it…

The Anti Radiation Case That Refuses to Sell a Number

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 16, 2026

RF Safe argues that many “anti-radiation” phone cases market misleading “% blocked” claims based on lab material tests rather than whole-device, real-world performance. The article promotes RF Safe’s TruthCase/QuantaCase as a “physics-first” design that avoids advertising a single blocking percentage and emphasizes…

RF Safe’s Market Position and Industry Skepticism

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 16, 2026

RF Safe argues that while it has operated since 1998 and emphasizes “physics-based” design and education, the broader anti-radiation phone case market is widely criticized for hype and potentially misleading “blocking” claims. The post says some experts consider the category ineffective or even counterproductive,…

Research PubMed: RF-EMF health Jan 13, 2026

This PubMed-listed animal study reports results from the Japanese arm of an international Japan–Korea collaboration evaluating whether long-term mobile-phone-like RF-EMF exposure causes cancer or genetic damage in rats. Male Sprague Dawley rats were exposed to 900 MHz CDMA-modulated RF-EMF at a whole-body SAR of 4…

U.S. policy on wireless technologies and public health protection: regulatory gaps and proposed reforms

Policy PubMed: RF-EMF health Jan 5, 2026

This PubMed-listed paper argues that the U.S. regulatory framework for radiofrequency radiation (RFR) from wireless technologies is outdated, lacks adequate oversight and enforcement, and has not been meaningfully updated since 1996. It contends that FCC exposure limits focus on short-term, high-intensity effects and…

MBFC’s Misrepresentation: Straight-Up Lying or Just Sloppy?

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 5, 2026

RF Safe criticizes Media Bias Fact Check (MBFC) for labeling RF Safe as “pseudoscience” with “mixed factual reporting” and “low credibility,” arguing MBFC’s entry contains factual errors and misrepresentations. The post says RF Safe does not claim RF radiation definitively causes human disease, but instead presents…

Best Anti‑Radiation Phone Case 2026: Why QuantaCase (RF Safe) Is the Stand‑Out Choice

Resources RF Safe Jan 3, 2026

RF Safe argues that many “anti-radiation” phone cases use misleading marketing (e.g., fabric-swatch tests, vague “FCC tested” claims) and that some designs may cause phones to increase transmit power if they interfere with antennas. The article provides a checklist of red flags (magnets/metal plates, detachable…

Put Your Name on the Record: What the RF Safe “Act Now” Page Is For—and Why It Exists

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 2, 2026

RF Safe promotes an “Act Now” hub intended to convert EMF safety concerns into policy and regulatory actions, emphasizing accountability and exposure reduction, especially for children. The page outlines five advocacy “levers,” including changing Section 704 of the Telecommunications Act, pressing the FCC to complete…
