The “FDA Proof” MBFC Cited Against RF Safe Was Removed

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 25, 2026

RF Safe argues that Media Bias/Fact Check (MBFC) downgraded RF Safe partly by citing an FDA webpage stating typical RF exposure is not supported by current evidence as a health risk, but that the cited FDA page now redirects to a general “Cell Phones” landing page. The post claims other historically cited FDA…

Checking Fact Checkers: MBFC’s Reliance on a Now Removed FDA Page @MBFC_News

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 25, 2026

RF Safe criticizes Media Bias/Fact Check (MBFC) for rating it “medium credibility,” arguing MBFC relied on an FDA webpage that was later changed/redirected and on a Harvard T.H. Chan School commentary. The post claims the FDA removed categorical reassurance language about cell phone safety and frames this as…

RFK Jr. Was Right to Pull FDA’s Blanket “Cell Phone Radiation Is Safe” Assurances

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 19, 2026

This RF Safe commentary argues that HHS, under Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., was correct to remove FDA webpages that gave broad assurances that cell phone radiation is “not dangerous.” It claims blanket safety messaging is scientifically indefensible given animal toxicology findings (notably the U.S. National…

Cell Phone Radiation: What HHS/FDA actually did—and why that matters

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 19, 2026

This RF Safe commentary argues that Reuters-reported actions by HHS and FDA—launching an HHS study and removing older FDA webpages stating cellphones are “not dangerous”—should be understood as a risk-communication/scientific-integrity adjustment rather than a declaration of confirmed harm. It contends that…

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…

Why the S4 Mito Spin Framework Stays Out of Human Causation Debates – And Why That’s a Strength for RF/EMF Safety Advocacy

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 14, 2026

RF Safe argues that its “S4-Mito-Spin” framework should avoid debates about whether cell phones cause human disease and instead focus on mechanistic and animal evidence for non-thermal RF/EMF biological effects. The post claims the framework synthesizes established concepts (ion-channel interactions,…

Fact-Checkers Aren’t Infallible: Debunking MBFC’s “Pseudoscience” Label on RF Safe

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 5, 2026

RF Safe publishes a commentary disputing Media Bias Fact Check’s (MBFC) labeling of RF Safe as “pseudoscience” with “mixed factual reporting” and “low credibility.” The post argues MBFC mischaracterized RF Safe’s content as overstating evidence about cell phones and health, claiming RF Safe generally uses cautious,…

One Mechanism. Millions of Children Harmed.

Independent Voices RF Safe Nov 21, 2025

RF Safe argues that a single biological mechanism explains widespread harm to children from modern wireless signals (cell phones, Wi‑Fi, 5G, DECT), emphasizing that these signals are “pulsed and modulated.” The post claims that “animal proof” is now high-certainty and references “WHO 2025 GRADE-rated systematic…

The WHO-commissioned systematic reviews on health effects of radiofrequency radiation provide no assurance of safety

Research RF Safe Research Library Jan 1, 2025

This paper evaluates and critiques 12 WHO-commissioned systematic reviews and meta-analyses on RF-EMF health effects across outcomes including cancer and reproductive endpoints. It argues that serious methodological flaws and limitations in the WHO reviews prevent them from providing assurance of safety for cell…
