On September 12, 2023, Apple’s iPhone 12 type phones were withdrawn from the market in France, due to the emission of electromagnetic waves above the threshold authorized by the National Frequency Agency. What are Iphone 12 users at risk? Response elements.
The Iphones 12, from the Apple brand, have been temporarily withdrawn from sale in France. And this is because “an exceedance (of 1.74 W per kilogram (W/kg) of the limit values on electromagnetic waves emitted and absorbed by the human body” when the phone is held by hand, according to the National Frequency Agency (ANFR).
The organization asks Apple to “implement all available means to quickly remedy this malfunctiont” on copies already sold, otherwise you will have to call them back. This would involve a simple software update, said Jean-Noël Barrot, French Minister for Digital Affairs. at the Parisian.
The apple company defends itself and affirms that the results of the analyzes carried out did not exceed the threshold in question.
According to the AFP, the regulatory thresholds are set extremely low compared to the risks established by research. So Iphone 12 users shouldn’t worry.
First, still according to AFP, “there are simply very few proven links between health problems and exposure to radiofrequenciesor electromagnetic waves emitted by telephones or other devices such as Wi-Fi terminals“.
However, it is well established that these waves can, in large doses, increase body temperature. The threshold set up by the National Frequency Agency (ANFR) therefore makes it possible to limit this effect.
