I don’t know that coffee increases risk of cancer. I haven’t seen any evidence of that. Some studies show coffee reduces the incidence of some cancers. Trace amounts of chemicals possibly found in coffee unlikely to matter. The air we breathe seems orders of magnitude more carcinogenic.
Seems like an overblown worry given no actual link found between coffee and increased cancer risk in humans. Links between coffee and reduced cancer risk have been found.
For example:

- gregjor 3y agoOP specifically mentions fear of cancer from acrylamide in coffee, in a comment. Having a bad reaction or allergy to coffee is one thing, worrying about getting cancer from coffee is another.
