Are you trying to say that this is all about the battery and CPU heating up inside the phone? So why does the chart in TFA indicate EM frequencies? https://ww

  According to the article it’s purely about heat: > The EU's standards note that within a phone's typical frequency range, the main danger of excess radiation is not changes to cells or chemicals in the body, leading to cancer, but "whole-body heat stress and excessive localized heating of tissues." The vast majority of mobile phone research indicates no adverse effects from regular exposure to the non-ionizing frequencies phones use to communicate. I can’t speak to why the chart has frequency dependent limits.

    Because EM radiation heats up body tissues! Heating is the main biological effect of the electromagnetic fields of radiofrequency fields. In microwave ovens this fact is employed to warm up food. The levels of radiofrequency fields to which people are normally exposed are very much lower than those needed to produce significant heating. The heating effect of radiowaves forms the underlying basis for current guidelines. Scientists are also investigating the possibility that effects below the threshold level for body heating occur as a result of long-term exposure. To date, no adverse health effects from low level, long-term exposure to radiofrequency or power frequency fields have been confirmed, but scientists are actively continuing to research this area.
