The spin and marketing of the telecommunications industry is designed to promote the rapid deployment of all manner of wireless technologies without question, never divulging the serious scientific concern about its safety.

put in touch with him through a colleague who knew I was writing a
story about the potential dangers of cell-phone radiation. He agreed to
talk with me only if his name wasn't used, so I'll call him Jim. He
explained that the tumor was located just behind his right ear and was
not immediately fatal--the five-year survival rate is about 70 percent . . . "
