San Francisco can have signed cellphone radiation labels into law, but the stickers won\’t stick without a fight — the Cellular phone Industries Association (CTIA) just filed a complain in federal district court, claiming the hot law supersedes the FCC\’s authority to control radio emissions and misleads consumers into believing some phones are safer than others. As we\’ve discussed previously, the CTIA does have something of some degree. Every phone that makes it to market is rigorously tested for mobile phone radiation levels, and people who pass fall below a particular 1.6 watt per kilogram threshold already. But hey, we\’re keen on bombarding our brains with that much less radiation, provided that our calls stay connected and our text messages arrive on time. If only there were a label for that.
