Cancer rates have been skyrocketing for 100 of years really, but they began to skyrocketing even more in the 90s. It's a disease of modern age really, just look at cancer prevalence around the world (plus you can see the cancer increase since the 90s) [1].

There are multiple studies saying people living near cell towers have higher chance of cancer. Most studies say data is inconclusive or whatever, but that's just quackademic jargon for "we and our telecom donors don't like the results".

I'd like to see more research into cellphones too, not just towers, cell phones radiate far more due to their proximity to you.

I don't buy "non-ionizing radiation" argument either, sun rays are non-ionizing too, yet obviously you can get skin cancer when you're exposed to sun too much.

Overall, every study I've read won't say "No, RF doesn't cause cancer" outright, because everyone knows it's bullshit, same as when CDC told masks don't work. But phones are too convenient to be thrown out of our lives, technology shapes us, not the other way around.
