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paper argues that the U.S. regulatory framework for radiofrequency radiation (RFR) from wireless technologies is outdated, lacks adequate oversight and enforcement, and has not been meaningfully updated since 1996.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 do not address long-term, low-intensity exposures, with insufficient safeguards for children, pregnancy, and other vulnerable groups. The authors also discuss alleged regulatory capture, gaps in monitoring and compliance, and propose reforms including independent research, updated safety limits, and stronger pre- and post-market surveillance.

RF Safe announced an “Ethical Connectivity Pledge” aimed at celebrity- and creator-branded mobile plans, urging them to adopt child-first design standards, improve transparency, and invest in lower-exposure connectivity options such as Li‑Fi where feasible. The organization argues that current microwave-based wireless networks may pose plausible health risks—especially for children—and that business models can externalize long-term health costs onto families and public systems. The pledge is presented as a public signatory framework with tiers of commitment and an intent to enable public scrutiny of follow-through.

RF Safe founder John Coates publishes an open letter urging YouTuber MrBeast (Jimmy Donaldson) to make any potential “Beast Mobile” offering explicitly child-protective and “Li‑Fi compatible,” arguing that phones carried close to the body could scale long-term RF exposure among children. The letter frames current regulatory compliance as insufficient for a youth-focused brand and claims that “non-native EMFs” may disrupt biological timing and redox processes via an “S4–Mito–Spin” framework. The piece is advocacy-oriented and does not present new study data in the provided text.

RF Safe argues that companies marketing wireless connectivity to children should adopt a precautionary, “ethical connectivity” approach rather than relying on existing U.S. RF exposure rules. The piece claims current FCC guidelines are outdated and cites a 2021 D.C. Circuit decision criticizing the FCC’s retention of its RF limits, along with assertions about WHO-commissioned reviews and animal evidence. Overall, it frames wireless exposure for children as a credible risk and emphasizes regulatory lag and legal constraints as reasons for voluntary industry action.

RF Safe founder John Coates outlines a 2026 advocacy plan focused on increasing enforcement of U.S. federal radiation-control law, pushing consumer technology toward Li‑Fi as a safer baseline for children, and demanding accountability from companies marketing wireless products to children. The post argues that current RF safety rules rely too heavily on “thermal-only” assumptions and that cumulative exposure from smartphones is a preventable risk. It also states RF Safe intends to pursue legal action to compel HHS to fulfill duties under the Radiation Control for Health & Safety Act (Public Law 90-602).

This RF Safe commentary argues that wireless communications “took a wrong turn” by prioritizing radiofrequency/microwave transmission over light-based approaches, citing Alexander Graham Bell’s 1880 photophone as an alternative model. It suggests that widespread, continuous RF exposure in modern environments is undesirable and proposes light-based, room-scale wireless as more biologically compatible. The piece also speculates about a historical association between Heinrich Hertz’s close-range RF experiments and his later fatal illness, while acknowledging there is no controlled evidence proving causation.

RF Safe publishes a commentary describing a public feud between Dr. Jack Kruse and RF Safe founder John Coates over how to address health concerns attributed to non-native electromagnetic fields (nnEMFs), especially regarding children. The piece portrays Kruse as emphasizing personal “light/circadian” biohacks and Coates as pushing technology and policy changes such as LiFi adoption and repealing/altering telecom-related legal constraints. It includes numerous claims about EMF-related harms and references to research (e.g., NTP/Ramazzini, a Henry Lai meta-analysis) but presents them within an advocacy narrative rather than as a balanced review.

An RF Safe article presents a personal narrative and hypothesis that “non-native EMFs” act as “entropic waste” that could disrupt early embryonic neurodevelopment (neurulation), potentially contributing to neural-tube defects and later neurodevelopmental outcomes such as autism/ADHD. The author links a family tragedy to this hypothesis and argues for reducing wireless exposure as a precaution. The post cites several studies/reports (e.g., Farrell 1997, Aldad 2012, NTP 2018, WHO SR4A 2025) but does not provide detailed methods or evidence appraisal within the excerpt.

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 reviews,” linking EMF exposure to rare cancers in young people, declining sperm counts, and childhood autoimmune/neurodevelopmental disorders. The excerpt provided does not include citations or details sufficient to verify these claims.

This RF Safe article argues that real-world, pulsed/modulated RF exposures may introduce “timing noise” that disrupts voltage-gated ion channel (VGIC) gating via the S4 helix, framing this as a non-thermal mechanism (“S4 Timing Fidelity”). It claims such timing drift could alter calcium and proton flux, affect cellular signaling and mitochondrial workload, and contribute to chronic oxidative stress and inflammatory pathway activation. The post further links this proposed mechanism to interpretations of large-animal RF studies (e.g., NTP and Ramazzini) as consistent with sub-thermal carcinogenic outcomes, presenting this as a unifying explanatory model rather than reporting new experimental results.
